[A] [D]
[G] I'm [C] going to sing a song called, I'm Going to Be a Man.
I'm going to be a man.
[F] I'm going to be a man.
I'm going to be a [B] man.
[E] At [A] first I was afraid, [D] I was petrified.
I kept [G] thinking I could never live [D] without [C] you by my side.
But [Am] then I spent so many nights just [Bm] thinking how you'd done me [Gbm] wrong.
And [E] I grew strong.
I learned how to get along and [A] so [E] you're back [D] from outer space.
I just walk in to find you here [C] without that look upon your face.
I should [F] have changed my lock.
I [B] would have made you [Gb] leave your key if [E] I'd have known.
But just one second, you'd be back to bother [A] me.
[C] Oh now, [G] go [Dm] walk out the door.
[Bm] Just turn [G] around.
Now [C] you're not welcome anymore.
[F] Weren't you the one who [B] tried to break me with desire?
Did you [E] think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
[A] Hold on, [Am] I, [G] I [Dm] will survive.
Yeah, [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.
[E] I will survive.
I will survive.
Yeah, [A] yeah.

[Am] [Eb] [D] [Eb] [D]
[Em] [C]
[E] [Dm] [B]
[E]
[Am] It took all the strength I had [D] just not to [Am] fall apart.
I'm [G] trying hard to mend [D] the pieces of [C] my [Bb] broken [G] heart.
And I [F] spent oh so many nights just [B] feeling sorry for myself.
I [E] used to cry.
But now I hold my head up high [A] and you see me [D] with somebody new.
I'm not that stupid little person [C] still in love with you.
And so [F] you thought you'd just drop [Am] by [Ebm] and you'd expect me to be free.
But [E] now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving [A] me.
[C] Oh, now [G] go walk [Dm] out the door.
Just turn [G] around.
Now [C] you're not welcome anymore.
[F] Were you the one who [B] tried to break me with desire?
Did [E] you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
[D] Hold on, [Am] I, [Dm] I will survive.
Yeah, [G] as long as I know [C] how to love, I know I'll be alive.
I've [F] got all my life to live.
