[D]
Pressure pushing down on me, [Bm] pressing down on you, [D] no man that's for.
Under pressure, a [A] place of feeling dry, a [G] place of [Bm] famine too, [A] a steeper of streets.
[D] Rub it, [A] rub it, [Bm] beat it up, beat [A] it up, that's [Dm] okay.
It's the terror [G] of knowing [A] what this world [G] is about, watching some good friends scream, let me out.
But tomorrow, keeps me higher, [D] pressure on, heat, heart, [G] people on, [A] streets.
[D]
Tripping around, keep my brains from the floor, suck a taste, it never rains but it pours.
Heat it up, [A] heat it up, heat it up, [Bm] heat it up, heat [A] it [D] up, [F#m] heat it up, [Bm] heat it up, [F#m] heat it up.
[G] It's the terror of knowing [A] what this world [G] is about, watching some good [A] friends scream, [G] let me out.
But tomorrow, [A] keeps me higher, [D] pressure on, heat, [F#m] heart, [G] people on, [A]
streets.
[G] Turned away from it all, [C] like a blind man, [G] sat on a fence, [C] but it don't work.
[G] Keep coming up with love but [C] it's so slashed and [Em] torn.
[A]
Why, [F] why?
[C]
[F]
[A] Insanity laughs under pressure where [G] there is heat.
[D] Can't we give ourselves [G] one more chance?
Why [D] can't we give love another [G] chance?
Why [D] can't we give love, give love, give [G] love, give [D] love, give [F#m] love?
[Bm] Cause love's such [A] an old [D]-fashioned word
And [A] love dares you [Bm] to care for
[A] The people [D] on the edge of the night
And love [Bm] dares you to [A] change our [D] way [G] of
Caring [A] about [G] ourselves
This is our [A] last [D] dance
This [G] is [A] ourselves Under [D] pressure Under pressure
