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