verse 1 

Gm               Eb               F 
Aim, throw your best shot right at me 
        Gm           Eb         F 
Cause pain, I can take it easily 
      Gm                  Eb            F 
Did you really think I'd fall to my knees 
         Gm              Eb           F 
Just to pray for some sweet simplicity? 


Pre-Chorus 
Gm                               Eb           F            Gm              F 
Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight 
     Gm                  Eb         F             Gm                  F 
And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights 


Gm       Eb 
Power, power 
        Bb                                      F 
I will never understand the power you're holding over me 
Gm      Eb 
Power, power 
          Bb                       F 
Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long 


verse 2 

Gm          Eb             F           Gm 
Pain, just synapses firing in our brain 
            Eb             F 
So when you cut me, cut me deep 
         Gm              Eb          F 
Hurt the ones you love the most easily 
          Gm           Eb            F 
Cause in time we show our Achilles's heels 


Pre-Chorus 
Gm                               Eb           F            Gm              F 
Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight 
     Gm                  Eb         F             Gm                  F 
And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights 


Gm       Eb 
Power, power 
        Bb                                      F 
I will never understand the power you're holding over me 
Gm      Eb 
Power, power 
          Bb                       F 
Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long 


Bridge 
               Gm 
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder 
Eb 
(Hit me, hit me harder) 
               Bb                         F 
Cause you better knock me out the first time 
             Gm 
And if you're do this with the plaster 
Eb 
(Do this with the plaster) 
Bb                                 F 
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder than this 
Gm      Eb 
Power, power 
         Bb                                 F 
Blows my mind to think I ever let you hold it over me 


Gm Eb Bb F 

 
Gm      Eb   
Power, power 
        Bb                                      F         
I will never understand the way I let you hold it over me 
Gm      Eb   
Power, power 
            Bb                            F              
Well you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long 

Gm         Eb             Bb              F   
Power, oh, oh, power, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 
Gm      Eb    
Power, power 
           Bb                           F 
I let you have it too long, yes you've had it too long
