Verse
Am F G
Aim, throw your best shot right at me
Am F G
Cause pain, I can take it easily
Am F G
Did you really think I'd fall to my knees
Am F G
Just to pray for some sweet simplicity?
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F G Am G
Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight
Am F G Am G
And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights
[Chorus 1]
Am F
Power, power
C G
I will never understand the power you're holding over me
Am F
Power, power
C G
Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long
[Verse 2]
Am F G Am
Pain, just synapses firing in our brain
F G
So when you cut me, cut me deep
Am F G
Hurt the ones you love the most easily
Am F G
Cause in time we show our Achilles's heels
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F G Am G
Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight
Am F G Am G
And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights
[Chorus 1]

Power, power

Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long
[Bridge]
Am
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder
F
(Hit me, hit me harder)
C G
Cause you better knock me out the first time
Am
And if you're do this with the plaster
F
(Do this with the plaster)
C G
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder than this
Am F
Power, power
C G
Blows my mind to think I ever let you hold it over me
Am F C G
[Chorus 2]
Am F
Power, power
C G
I will never understand the way I let you hold it over me

I let you have it too long, yes you've had it too long
