Verse
F#m D E
Aim, throw your best shot right at me
F#m D E
Cause pain, I can take it easily
F#m D E
Did you really think I'd fall to my knees
F#m D E
Just to pray for some sweet simplicity?
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m D E F#m E
Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight
F#m D E F#m E
And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights
[Chorus 1]
F#m D
Power, power
A E
I will never understand the power you're holding over me
F#m D
Power, power
A E
Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long
[Verse 2]
F#m D E F#m
Pain, just synapses firing in our brain
D E
So when you cut me, cut me deep
F#m D E
Hurt the ones you love the most easily
F#m D E
Cause in time we show our Achilles's heels
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m D E F#m E
Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight
F#m D E F#m E
And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights
[Chorus 1]
F#m D
Power, power
A E
I will never understand the power you're holding over me
F#m D
Power, power
A E
Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long
[Bridge]
F#m
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder
D
(Hit me, hit me harder)
A E
Cause you better knock me out the first time
F#m
And if you're do this with the plaster
D
(Do this with the plaster)
A E
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder than this
F#m D
Power, power
A E
Blows my mind to think I ever let you hold it over me
F#m D A E
[Chorus 2]
F#m D
Power, power
A E
I will never understand the way I let you hold it over me

Well you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long

Power, power
A E
I let you have it too long, yes you've had it too long
