Am Am                           Dm Dm
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
G G
C C
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
F F
Gm Gm
But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
E E
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along

Am Am
And so you're back
Dm Dm
From outer space
G G
C C
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
F F
I should have changed that stupid lock,
Gm Gm
I should have made you leave your key
E E
If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

Am Am Dm Dm
Go on now, go, walk out the door
G G
Just turn around now
C C
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
F F Gm Gm
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
E E
Do you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Am Am Dm Dm
Oh no, not I, I will survive
G G
C C
Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
F F
I've got all my life to live
Gm Gm
E E
And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
I will survive, hey, hey

Am Am Dm Dm G G C C F F Gm Gm E E

Am Am
Dm Dm
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
G G
C C
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
F F
Gm Gm
And I spent oh-so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
E E
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high

Am Am
and you see me
Dm Dm
Somebody new
G G
C C
I'm not that chained-up little person and still in love with you
F F
Gm Gm
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
E E
Well, now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's loving me


Am Am Dm Dm
Go on now, go, walk out the door
G G
Just turn around now
C C
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
F F Gm Gm
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
E E
Do you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Am Am Dm Dm
Oh no, not I, I will survive
G G
C C
Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
F F
I've got all my life to live
Gm Gm
E E
And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
C C
I will survive
Am Am
Oh

Am Am Dm Dm
Go on now, go, walk out the door
G G
Just turn around now
C C
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
F F Gm Gm
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
E E
Do you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no, not I, I will survive

I've got all my life to live

And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
I will survive
