[E] At [Am]
first I was afraid, [Dm] I was petrified, kept [G] thinking I could never live [C] without you by my side.
[F] But then I spent so many nights [B] thinking how you did me wrong, and [E] I grew strong.
And I learned how to get along, so [Am] now you're back from [Dm] outer space.
I [G] just walked in to find you here with [C] that sad look upon your face.
I [F] should have changed that stupid lock.
I [Bm] should have made you leave your key.
[E] I don't know, for just one second, you'd be back to bother me.
Come [Am] on now, go, walk [Dm] out the door.
Just [G] turn around now, cause [C] you're not welcome anymore.
[F]
Weren't you the one who [Dm] tried to hurt me with goodbye?
Did your [B] heart crumble?
Did you [E] try to lay down and die?
[Am]
[Dm] Oh, [G] as long as I know how to [C] last here alive, [F] I've got all my life to live, and [B] I've got
all my love to give, and [E] I'll survive.
I will survive.
[Am] [Dm] [G]
[C] [F]
[B] [E]
[E] It took all the strength [Am] I had [Dm] to follow, though I've [G] got hard to mend the pieces of
[C] my broken heart.
And I've [F] spent oh, so many nights just [Bm] feeling sorry for myself, I used [E] to cry.
But now I hold my head up to see you leave.
[Dm] Somebody lift [G] that chain of your little purse, I'm still [C] in love with you.
And so [F] you felt like dropping in and just [B] expect me to be free.
[E] Now I'm saving all my loving for [E] someone who's loving me.
[Am]
Walk out [Dm] the door.
Just turn [G]
around now, cause you're [C] not welcome anymore.

all my love to give, and I'll survive.
