[Verse]

     Am7                            Dm7
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
                     G7                                           Cmaj7
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
                Fmaj7                                      Bm7-5
But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
                  Esus4                 E
And I grew strong, I learned how to carry on
                      Am7                   Dm7
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 that stupid lock I should have made you leave your key
            Esus4                                               E
If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

[Chorus]

                  Am7                 Dm7
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
did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die

                 Am7         Dm7
Oh no, not I, I will survive
     G                     G7                 Cmaj7
as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
            Fmaj7                              Bm7-5
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
                Esus4            E               Am7
and I'll survive, I will survive, hey hey

[Verse]

           Am7                                    Dm7
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
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high
                    Am7               Dm7
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
now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me

[Chorus]

                  Am7                 Dm7
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 break me with goodbye
                     Esus4                                 E
did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

                 Am7         Dm7
Oh no, not I, I will survive
     G                    G7                         Cmaj7
oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
            Fmaj7                              Bm7-5
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
                Esus4            E
and I'll survive, I will survive, oh

[Chorus]

                 Am7                  Dm7
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 break me with goodbye
                     Esus4                                 E
did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

                 Am7         Dm7
Oh no, not I, I will survive
     G                     G7                         Cmaj7
oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
            Fmaj7                              Bm7-5
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
                Esus4            E               Am7
and I'll survive, I will survive, I will survive
