Major Lazer - Powerful

(Ellie Goulding & Tarrus Riley)

Am

Oh my my my, what you do to me?
Am

Like lightning when I'm swimming in the sea
C

From the very first time we loved
C

From the very first time we touched
Am

Walking on wires and power lines
Am

You put your body on top of mine
C

Every time that you lift me up
C

To the heaven and stars above

[Pre-chorus]

Dm

O lord of mercy
Am

I'm begging you please
C

I'm feeling drained
G

I need love
Dm

You charge me up
Am

like electricity
C

Jumpstart my heart
G

with your love

[Chorus]

Dm Am

There's an energy, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful
Dm Am

I can feel it, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful
Dm Am

There's an energy, when you hold me
C G
When you touch me, it's so powerful
Dm Am

I can feel it, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful

[Verse]

Am

I couldn't leave if I wanted to
Am

cause something keeps pulling me back to you
C

From the very first time we loved
C

From the very first time we touched

[Pre-chorus]

Dm

The stroke of your fingers
The scent of you lingers
Am

My mind roaming wild
with thoughts of your smile
C

Oh you gotta give me some
G

you can give it all but it's never enough no

[Build up - whoa ohs]

Dm Am C G
Dm Am C G

[Soft Chorus]

Dm Am

There's an energy, when you hold me
C G                

When you touch me, it's so powerful
Dm Am

I can feel it, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful

[Chorus]

Dm Am

I can feel it, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful
Dm Am

There's an energy, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful
Dm Am

I can feel it, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful
Dm Am

I can feel it, when you hold me
C G

When you touch me, it's so powerful

[Outro]

Dm Am

Hold me in your arms
C G

Burns like a fire, electricity
Dm Am

When you're close I feel the sparks
C G

Takes me higher to infinity
