Am                  Dm 
At first I was afraid, I was petrified 
             G             G7             Cmaj7 
Kept thinking I should never live without you by my side 
            F                        Bm7 
But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong 
              Esus4     E 
I grew strong and I learned how to carry on 

            Am              Dm 
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 
              F                                  Bm7 
I should have changed that stupid lock I should have made you leave your key 
       Esus4             E             Esus4       E 
If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me 

        Am              Dm 
Go on now go, walk out the door 
              G     G7           Cmaj7 
Just turn around now, 'cause your not welcome anymore 
F                             Bm7 
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye 
             Esus4  E         Esus4       E 
You think I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die? 

         Am                F 
I'm a survivor, I'm not gon' give up 
             E                 Am 
I'm not gon' stop, I'm gon' work harder 
         Am            F 
I'm a survivor, I'm gonna make it 
         E              Am 
I will survive, keep on surviving 

                   Am 
Thought I couldn't breathe without you, 
      F 
I'm inhalin' 
                       E 
You thought I couldn't see without you, 
        Am 
Perfect vision, 
                      Am 
You thought I couldn't last without ya, 
        F 
But I'm lastin' 
                         E 
You thought that I would die without ya, 
        Am 
But I'm livin' 
                     Am 
Thought that I would fail without ya, 
       F 
But I'm on top, 
                  E 
Though it would be over by now, 
       Am 
But it won't stop, 
                        Am 
You thought that I would self-destruct, 
        F 
But I'm still here, 
           E 
Even in my years to come, 
              Am 
I'm still gon' be here.
