[E]
[G#m] [Am] First I was afraid, I [Dm] was petrified, [G] kept thinking I could never live without you [C] by my side.
But then I [F] spent so many nights thinking [B] how you did me wrong.
And I [E] grew strong, and I learned how to get along and so [Am] you're back.
From out [Dm] of faith, I just [G] walked in to find you here without [C] that look upon you.
I should have [F] changed that suit to lock, I should [B] have made you leave your seat.
If [A] I'd have known for just one [E] second you'd be back to bother me.
[Am] So I'll now go, walk out [Dm] the [G] door, cause you're [C] not welcome anymore.
[F] Weren't you the one who tried [Bm] to hurt me with your spite?
You [F#] got crumbled, [E] you got laid down and [Am]
[Dm] oh, [G] it's a
[C] lie.
[F] I've got all my life to live, [Bm] I've got all my love to give, and I'll [E] survive, I will survive.
Hey, [Am] hey,
[Dm] [G] [C]
[F]
[B] [E]
it took [Am] all the tears I
[Dm] had to [G] try to wash them in the pieces of [C] my broken heart.
And I [F] spent oh so many nights just [B] feeling sorry for my dear [F#] wife's pride.
But now [E] I hold my head up high and [Am] you see me.
[Dm] Somebody needs [G] to change a little to [C] feel in love with you.
And so [F] you felt like dropping in and [B] just expecting to be free.
[F#] Now I'm saving all my loving for [E] someone who's loving me.
So [Am] I'll now go, walk [Dm] out the door, just [G] turn around now, cause you're [C] not welcome anymore.
[F] Weren't you the one who [B] tried to break me with your spite?
You [E] got crumbled, you got laid down and oh, it's [Am] a lie.
I will [Dm] survive, oh, [G] and
[C] [F] I've got all my life to live, [B] I've got all my love to give, and [Am] I'll survive, I [E] will survive.
Oh, [Am] now,
[Dm] [G] you're [C] not welcome anymore.
[F] Weren't you the one who tried [B] to break me with your spite?
You think [F#] I can [E] rumble, you think I can lay down and [Am]
[Dm] oh, [G] it's
[C] a lie.
[F] I've got all my life to live, [Dm] I've got all my love to give, and [E] I'll survive,
[Am]
[F] I will [G] survive.
[C] [Am] [F]
[Dm] [E]
[Am] You should have watched
[Dm] [G] in the detail [Em] of my broken heart, and [F] I said, oh, so many nights, just [Dm] feeling sorry for myself, I [F#] used to cry.
But [E] now I hold my head high and [Am] you see me, in [Dm] you, [G]
[Em] feeling in love with you.
And [F] so you felt like dropping in and [Bm] just expecting to be free.
[F#] Now I'm saving all my loving [E] for someone who's loving [Am] me.
Oh, [Dm] now, [G]
[C] you're not welcome [F] anymore.
Weren't you the one who tried to [Bm] hurt me with your spite?
You [E] think I can rumble, you think I can lay down and [Am] oh, [Dm] [G] it's a
[C] lie.
[F] I've got all my life to live, [B] I've got all my love to [Bm] give, and [E] I'll survive, I will survive.
Yeah, [Am] I've got [Dm] all my life [G]
[C] [Am]
[Dm] to live, I've got all my love to give, [E] and I'll survive.
