[Verse]
E
Pressure to party, gonna stay in
Nothing good can come from me drinking
I would run, shoes off, straight back to you
A E
I know where you live, I used to live there too
E
Pressure to feel fine after the fact
Out on the dance floor with my body back
Meeting a stranger, touching his face
A E
I don't want anyone to ever take your place
E
Pressure to go strike out on your own
Pressure to learn from being alone
Pressure to not leave it for too long
A E
Before you find another heart where you belong
[Chorus]
E
Pressure to come up with conversation
A
Makes the family fine with my isolation
E
I know I've locked myself in my room
A E
But I'll open up the door and try to love again soon
A
Try to love again soon
E
Try to love again soon
A A7
Try to love again soon
E A
Ahhh, Ahhh
E A A7
Ahhhh
[Verse]
E
Pressure to act the right way around him
A F#m
We're both in a crowd with people surrounding us
E
What do I do?
F#m F#dim7
Don't know how it works
E
Pressure to not let the inside of my mind
A F#m
Spill onto the floor for our friends to find
E
And, oh, what do I do?
F#m F#dim7
Cause God how it hurts
[Chorus]
E
Pressure to come up with reasons why
A
Sometimes it might look to you like I'm not even trying
E
I know I've locked myself in my room
A E
But I'll open up the door and try to love again soon
A
Try to love again soon
E
Try to love again soon
A A7
Try to love again soon
E A
Ahhh, Ahhh
