{Verse One}
Am                        Dm
First I was afraid, I was petrified
              G             G7               Cmaj7
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
      Fmaj7                         Bm7(5)
But I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
       Esus4   E  Esus4                 E
I grew strong, I learned how to carry on
              Am              Dm
and so you're back from outer space
              G              G7                 Cmaj7
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
              Fmaj7                                Bm7(5)
I should have changed my stupid lock I should have made you leave your key
         Esus4               E               Esus4           E
If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

{Chorus}
          Am              Dm
Go on now go walk out the door
          G         G7                 Cmaj7
just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
                Fmaj7                    Bm7(5)
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
              Esus4   E              Esus4         E
you think I'd crumble you think I'd lay down and die

           Am           Dm
Oh no, not I, I will survive
   G              G7                 Cmaj7
as long as i know how to love I know I will stay alive
         Fmaj7                         Bm7(5)
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
            Esus4 E          Esus4 E
and I'll survive, I will survive

{Verse Two}
        Am                            Dm
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
            G                G7           Cmaj7
kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
            Fmaj7                          Bm7(5)
and I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
          Esus4 E       Esus4            E
I used to cry,   Now I hold my head up high
            Am          Dm
and you see me somebody new
             G                 G7              Cmaj7
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
           Fmaj7                            Bm7(5)
and so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
        Esus4          E          Esus4                 E
now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me

{Repeat Chorus}
