[C] [Am]
[Dm] [Em]
[C] [Am] [G]
[C]
I was [Am] petrified.
I kept [F] thinking I could never [Em] live without your by my side.
But then I [C] spent so many nights [B] thinking how you did me wrong.
And I grew [Am] strong.
[E] I learned how to get along.
[Am] So you're back from outer space.
I just walked in to find you [C] here with that sad [G] look upon your [Gm] face.
Should [Am] have changed that stupid lock.
I should have [Dm] made you leave your key.
If [Am] I'd known for just one sec, [E] you're back to bother me.
[Am] Go on now, go.
[Em] Walk out [Am] the door.
And just turn [F] around now, [Em] because you're not welcome [C] anymore.
[Am] Or weren't you the one [B] to try to hurt me with goodbye?
[F] [E] And [Am] you think I crumble?
[E] Did you think I lay down and die?
Oh, no, [C] not I.
[Am] I will [F] survive.
[C] Oh, as long as I know [Em] how to love, I know I stay [E] alive.
I [Am] got all my life to live.
I got [B] all my love to give and I [E] survive.
I will survive.
[F] You [Em] took all the strength [Am] I had not to fall apart.
I [F] kept trying hard [Em] to mend [E] the pieces [G] of my [C] broken heart.
[Am] I spent oh, so many nights just [Dm] feeling sorry for myself.
I [E] used to cry.
Now I hold my head up high and [Am] you see me.
Somebody knew [F] I'm not that chained up little [E] person
[C] still in love with you.
And [F] so you felt like [Am] dropping in and [B] just expect me to.
[E] I'm saving all my loving for someone who is loving me.

[F] Or weren't you the one to try [Bm] to hurt me with goodbye?
[E] You think I couldn't?
Did you think [Em] I lay down and die?
I'm [Am] not.
I will survive.
Oh, [F] as long as I [G] know how [C#] to love, [C] I know [Gm] I stay alive.
