Jessica Darrow - Surface Pressure Ukulele Chords

[Opening]
[Em] [Em]
[Em]I’m the strong one, I’m not nervous, [D]I’m as tough as the [C]crust of the earth is
[Em]I move mountains, I move churches, [D]and I glow ’cause I [C]know what my worth is [B]
[Em]I don’t ask how hard the work is, [D]got a rough, indes[C]tructible surface
[B]Diamonds and platinum, I find them, I flatten them,
I [B]take what I’m handed, I break what’s demanded, but

[section 2]
[Em]Under the surface, I feel berserk as a [D]tightrope walker in a [C]three-ring circus
[Em]Under the surface, was Hercules [D]ever like “Yo, I don’t [C]wanna fight Cerberus?”
[Em]Under the surface, I’m pretty surе I’m [D]worthless if I can’t be of [C]servicе
[B]A flaw or a crack, [B]the straw in the stack, [B]that breaks the camel’s back
[B]What breaks the camel’s back?

[section 3]
It’s [Em]pressure like a drip, drip, drip, that’ll never [C]stop, whoa [D]
[Em]Pressure that’ll tip, tip, tip till you just go [G]pop, whoa [D]ah ah
[Em]Give it to your sister, your sister’s older
[C]Give her all the heavy things we can’t shoulder
[G]Who am I if I can’t run with the [B]ball?

[section 4]
If I fall to, [Em]pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won’t let [C]go, whoa [D]
[Em]Pressure like a tick, tick, tick till it’s ready to [G]blow, whoa [D]ah ah
[Em]Give it to your sister, your sister’s stronger, [C]see if she can hang on a little longer
[G]Who am I if I can’t carry it [B]all? If I falter

[section 5]
[Em]Under the surface, I hide my nerves and it [D]worsens, I worry [C]something is gonna hurt us
[Em]Under the surface, the ship doesn’t [D]swerve as it heard how [C]big the iceberg is
[Em]Under the surface, I think about my [D]purpose, can I somehow [C]preserve this?
[B]Line up the dominoes, [B]a light wind blows, [B]you try to stop it tumbling
[B]But on and on it goes, but

[section 6]
[G]Wait, if I could [Bm]shake the crushing [G7]weight
Of expect[C]ations would that [Cm]free some room up for [G]joy?
Or relax[Bm]ation? Or simple [G7]pleasure?
Instead we [C]measure [Cm]this [Em]growing pressure
Keeps [D]growing, keep [Am]going, ’cause [B7]all we know is

[Closing]
[Em]Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that’ll never [C]stop, whoa [D]
[Em]Pressure that’ll tip, tip, tip till you just go [G]pop, whoa [D]ah ah
[Em]Give it to your sister, it doesn’t hurt and
[C]See if she can handle every family burden
[G]Watch as she buckles and bends but never [B]breaks, no mistakes, just
[Em]Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won’t let [C]go, whoa [D]
[Em]Pressure like a tick, tick, tick till it’s ready to [G]blow, whoa [D]ah ah
[Em]Give it to your sister and never wonder, [C]if the same pressure would’ve pulled you under
[G]Who am I, if I don’t have what it [B]takes, no cracks, no breaks, no mistakes, no [Em]pressure
