Intro 1
(E7b9)
Verse 1
At (A minor) first I was afraid, I was (D minor) petrified
Kept thinking I (G major) could never live without you
by (C minoraj7) my side
But then I (F minoraj7) spent so many nights
thinking (B minor7b5) how you did me wrong
And I grew (E7sus4) strong
And I learned (E7) how to get along
And so you're (A minor) back
From outer space (D minor)
I just walked (G major) in to find you here with that sad
(C minoraj7) look upon your face
I should have changed (F minoraj7) that stupid lock,
I should have made (B minor7b5) you leave your key
If I'd known (E7sus4) for just one second
you'd be (E7) back to bother me

Chorus 1
Go on now, (A minor) go, walk out the door (D minor)
Just turn around (G major) now
'Cause you're not (C minoraj7) welcome anymore
(F minoraj7) Weren't you the one who tried to
hurt (B minor7b5) me with goodbye?
You think I'd (E7sus4) crumble?
You think I'd (E7) lay down and die?
Oh no, not (A minor) I, I will survive (D minor)
Oh, as (G major) long as I know how to love,
I (C minoraj7) know I'll stay alive
I've got (F minoraj7) all my life to live
And I've got (B minor7b5) all my love to give and
I'll survive (E7sus4)
I will survive (E7) hey, hey
Interlude 1

(F minoraj7) (B minor7b5) (E7sus4) (E7)
Verse 2
It took (A minor) all the strength I had not to fall (D minor) apart
Kept trying hard (G major) to mend the pieces of my
broken (C minoraj7) heart
And I spent oh-so (F minoraj7) many nights just feeling
sorry (B minor7b5) for myself
I used to cry (E7sus4)
But now I hold (E7) my head up high
and you see (A minor) me
Somebody new (D minor)
I'm not that (G major) chained-up little person still in
love (C minoraj7) with you
And so you (F minoraj7) felt like dropping in and
just ex (B minor7b5) pect me to be free
Well, now I'm (E7sus4) saving all my lovin' for
some (E7) one who's loving me
Chorus 2
Go on now, (A minor) go, walk out the door (D minor)
Just turn around (G major) now
'Cause you're not (C minoraj7) welcome anymore
(F minoraj7) Weren't you the one who tried to
break (B minor7b5) me with goodbye?
You think I'd (E7sus4) crumble?
You think I'd (E7) lay down and die?
Oh no, not (A minor) I, I will survive (D minor)
Oh, as (G major) long as I know how to love,
I (C minoraj7) know I'll stay alive
I've got (F minoraj7) all my life to live
And I've got (B minor7b5) all my love to give and
I'll survive (E7sus4)
I will survive (E7)
Oh
Chorus 3
Go on now, (A minor) go, walk out the door (D minor)
Just turn around (G major) now
'Cause you're not (C minoraj7) welcome anymore
(F minoraj7) Weren't you the one who tried to
break (B minor7b5) me with goodbye?
You think I'd (E7sus4) crumble?
You think I'd (E7) lay down and die?
Oh no, not (A minor) I, I will survive (D minor)
Oh, as (G major) long as I know how to love,
