[E]
[F] [Am] First I was afraid, [Dm] I was petrified, [F] kept [G] thinking I could never live without [C] you by my side.
But [F] then I spent so many nights [B] thinking how you did me wrong.
[E] And I grew strong, [Em] and I learned how to get along.
And [Am] so you're back, from [Dm] out of space.
I [G] just want to find you here without [C] daddy.
I [Am] should have changed that stupid lock.
I [B] should have made you leave your key.
If [A] I'd have known for just one second [E] you'd be back to bother me.
Oh, [Am] now go.
Oh, [Dm] clock the door.
Just [G] turn around now.
Cause [C] you're not welcome anymore.
[F] Weren't you the one who'd be right to [Bm] hurt me with goodbye?
You think I'd [F#] crumble.
You [E] think I'd lay down and die.
[Am]
[Dm] [G] Oh, I've got
[C] [F] all my life to live.
I've got [Bm] all my love to give.
And I'll [E] survive.
I will survive.
[Am]
[Dm] [G]
[C] [Am]
[F] [B] [E]
It [C] took all the strength I [Am] had [Dm] [G] and the pieces [C] of my broken heart.
And [F] I've spent oh so many nights just [B] feeling sorry for myself and how [A] you cried.
But [E] now I hold my head up high and [Am] you see me.
[Dm] Somebody new.
I'm [G] not that chained up little person [C] still in love with you.
And [F] so you felt like dropping in and just [B] expecting to be free.
[F#] Now I'm saving all my loving [E] for someone who's loving me.
Oh, [Am] now go.
Oh, clock the [Dm] door.
[G]
[C] You're not welcome anymore.
[F] Weren't you the one who'd be right to [B] break me with goodbye?
You [E] think I'd crumble.
You think I'd lay [Bm] down and die.
Oh, [Am] no, not I.
I [Dm] will survive.
[G] Oh, I've [Em] got [F] all my life to live.
[B] I've got all my love to give.
And [A] I'll survive.
[E] Oh, boy, [Am] now go.
Oh, [Dm] clock the door.
Just [G] turn around now.
[C] You're not welcome.
[Am] Weren't you the [F] one who'd be [Dm] right to break me with goodbye?
You [F#] think I'd crumble.
[E]
You think I'd lay down and die.
