[C] [F] [B]
[E]
At [A] first I was afraid, [D] I was petrified
I kept [G] thinking I could never live [C] without you by my side
But then I spent [Am] so many nights just [B] thinking how you'd done [A] me wrong
I [E] grew strong, I learned how to get along
And so you're back from [D]
outer space
I [G] just walked in to find you here without [C] that look upon your face
I should have [F] changed my [C] lock, I [B] would have made you [Gb] leave your key
If [E] I'd have known, put just one second, you'd be back to bother [A] me
[Am] Oh now, go [G]
[Dm] far out the door, just [G] turn around
Now [C] you're not welcome anymore
[F] Weren't you the one who [B] tried to break me with desire?
Did you think [E] I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and [A] die?
Oh [Am] not I, [G] [D] I [Dm] will survive
[G] As long as I know how to [C] love, I know I'll be alive
I've got [F] all my life to live, [B] I've got all my love to give

I'm [G] trying hard to mend [D] the pieces [Cm] of my [Gm] broken heart
And I [F] spent oh so many nights [Ebm] just [B] feeling sorry for myself
I used to [E] cry
But now I hold my head up high [A] and you see [D] me
With somebody new
I'm not that stupid little person [C] still in love with you
And [F] so you thought you'd just drop [C] by [Gbm] and you'd expect me to be free
But [E] now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving [Em] me
[C] Oh now, [G] don't walk [Dm] out the door
Just turn [G] around
[C] Now you're not welcome anymore

Did [E] you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
