[Intro]
Em I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous D C I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is Em I move mountains
I move churches
D C B And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is Em I don't ask how hard the work is D C Got a rough, indestructible surface B Diamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em B7 I take what I'm handed, I break what's demanded, but
[Pre-chorus]
Em D No one else was in the room where it happened C B7 The room where it happened, the room where it happened Em D No one else was in the room where it happened, C B7 the room where it happened, the room where it happened Em D No one really knows how the parties get to yes, C B7 the pieces that are sacrificed in every game of chess C7 B7 We just assume that it happens, but no one else is in the room where it happens.
[Chorus]
Em C D It's pressure like a drip, drip, drip, that'll never stop, whoa Em G D Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip till you just go pop, whoa-uh-uh Em Give it to your sister, your sister's older C Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder G B Who am I if I can't run with the ball? B7 If I fall to Em C D Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa Em G D Pressure like a tick, tick, tick till it's ready to blow, whoa-uh-uh Em Give it to your sister, your sister's stronger C See if she can hang on a little longer G B Who am I if I can't carry it all? B7 If I falter
[Verse]
Em Under the surface D C I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us Em Under the surface D C The ship doesn't swerve as it heard how big the iceberg is Em Under the surface D I think about my purpose C Can I somehow preserve this? B Line up the dominoes B A light wind blows B7 You try to stop it tumbling B7 But on and on it goes, but
[Pre-chorus]
Em D C B7 Wait, I wanna be in the room where it happens, the room where it happens Em D C B7 I-I wanna be in the room where it happens, the room where it happens Em D C B7 I wanna be in the room where it happens, the room where it happens, the room where it happens E D C B7 I--I wanna be in the room whoa-whoa
[Chorus]
E D C B7 I wanna be in the room where it happens, the room where it happens, the room where it happens, E D C B7 I wanna be in the room where it happens, the room where it happens, the room where it happens, Em D C B7 Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa Em D C B7 Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip till you just go pop, whoa-uh-uh Em D The art of the compromise - C B7 Hold your nose and close your eyes Em D We want our leaders to save the day - C B7 But we don’t get a say in what they trade away
[Outro]
Em C D Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa Em G D Pressure like a tick, tick, tick till it's ready to blow, whoa-uh-uh Em Give it to your sister and never wonder C If the same pressure would've pulled you under G B Who am I, if I don't have what it takes B7 Em No cracks, no breaks, no mistakes, click boom
