C#m7 F#m7At first I was afraid, I was petrified
B7 Emaj7Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
Amaj7 D#m7b5But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
G#sus4 G#And I grew strong, I learned how to get along
C#m7 F#m7And so you're back from outer space
B B7 Emaj7I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
Amaj7 D#m7b5I should have changed that stupid lock I should have made you leave your key
G#sus4 G#If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
C#m7 F#m7Go on now go, walk out the door
B B7 Emaj7Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Amaj7 D#m7b5Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
G#sus4 G#Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die
C#m7 F#m7Oh no, not I, I will survive
B B7 Emaj7As long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
Amaj7 D#m7b5I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
G#sus4 G# C#m7And I'll survive, I will survive, hey hey
C#m7 F#m7 B B7 Emaj7 Amaj7 D#m7b5 G#sus4 G#
C#m7 F#m7It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
B B7 Emaj7Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
Amaj7 D#m7b5And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
G#sus4 G#I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high
C#m7 F#m7And you see me somebody new
B B7 Emaj7I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
Amaj7 D#m7b5And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
G#sus4 G#Now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
C#m7 F#m7Go on now go walk out the door
B B7 Emaj7Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Amaj7 D#m7b5Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
G#sus4 G#Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
C#m7 F#m7Oh no, not I, I will survive
B B7 Emaj7Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
Amaj7 D#m7b5I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
G#sus4 G#And I'll survive, I will survive, oh .....
C#m7 F#m7Go on now go walk out the door
B B7 Emaj7Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Amaj7 D#m7b5Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
G#sus4 G#Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
C#m7 F#m7Oh no, not I, I will survive
