[Verse]

Am                              Dm    
                    G
At first I was afraid, I was petrified 
                                                      C   
I kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side 
                    Cmaj7                               B7
But then I spent so many nights just thinking how you've done me wrong
              E              E7
And I grew strong, I learned how to get along...


               Am              Dm 
And so you're back from outer space,
              G                                                   C   
I just walked in to find you here with that, that look upon your face,
                 F                                    B7
I should have changed my freak en lock, I would have made you leave your key                                  
              E                                E7
If I’d have known for just one second you'd be back to bother me. 


[Chorus]

       Am                Dm                  G                     C 
Oh now go, walk out the door, Just turn around now, you're not welcome anymore.    F                                   B7
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with desire?
                   E
Did you think I'd crumble? 
                  E7
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

       Am          Dm                G                       
Oh not I, I will survive, Yeah, as long as I know how to love, 
     C
I know I'll be alive. 
          F                            B7
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, 
           E               E7
I will survive, I will survive, Yeah, yeah...

[Verse]

         Am                                       Dm                G
It took all the strength I had just not to fall apart,  I’m tryin' hard to 
                        C                        F
mend the pieces of my broken heart, And I spent oh so many nights just 
           B7                        E              E7
feelin' sorry for myself, I used to cry, But now I hold my head up high. 

               Am                Dm                 G
And you’ll see me with somebody new, I'm not that stupid little person still 
     C                        F                                    B7
in love with you. And so you thought you’d just drop by and you expect me to 
                      E                           E7
be free, But now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me, 


[Chorus]

       Am                Dm                  G                     C
Oh now go, walk out the door, Just turn around now, you're not welcome 
        F                                    B7
anymore. Weren't you the one who tried to break me with desire? Did you think
      E                         E7
I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

       Am          Dm                G                             C
Oh not I, I will survive, Yeah, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll be
                 F                            B7
alive. I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, I will 
   E              E7
survive, I will survive, Yeah, yeah...
