B7 If I fall to Em Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, C D and it won't let go, whoa Em Pressure like a tick, tick, tick G D 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 2] Em Under the surface D I hide my nerves and it worsens, C I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us Em Under the surface D The ship doesn't swerve as it heard C how big the iceberg is Em Under the surface D I think about my purpose C Can I somehow preserve this?
