Em7 Am7At first I was afraid, I was petrified
D7 Gmaj7Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
Cmaj7 F#m7b5But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
Bsus4 BAnd I grew strong, I learned how to get along
Em7 Am7And so you're back from outer space
D D7 Gmaj7I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
Cmaj7 F#m7b5I should have changed that stupid lock I should have made you leave your key
Bsus4 BIf I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
Em7 Am7Go on now go, walk out the door
D D7 Gmaj7Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Cmaj7 F#m7b5Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Bsus4 BDid you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die
Em7 Am7Oh no, not I, I will survive
D D7 Gmaj7As long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
Cmaj7 F#m7b5I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
Bsus4 B Em7And I'll survive, I will survive, hey hey
Em7 Am7 D D7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 F#m7b5 Bsus4 B
Em7 Am7It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
D D7 Gmaj7Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
Cmaj7 F#m7b5And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
Bsus4 BI used to cry, but now I hold my head up high
Em7 Am7And you see me somebody new
D D7 Gmaj7I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
Cmaj7 F#m7b5And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
Bsus4 BNow I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
Em7 Am7Go on now go walk out the door
D D7 Gmaj7Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Cmaj7 F#m7b5Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Bsus4 BDid you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Em7 Am7Oh no, not I, I will survive
D D7 Gmaj7Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
Cmaj7 F#m7b5I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
Bsus4 BAnd I'll survive, I will survive, oh .....
Em7 Am7Go on now go walk out the door
D D7 Gmaj7Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Cmaj7 F#m7b5Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Bsus4 BDid you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Em7 Am7Oh no, not I, I will survive
