[Verse 1]
Fm A#m
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
D# G#
I kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side
C# G7
But then I spent so many nights just thinking how you've done me wrong
C C7
I grew strong, I learned how to get along...
Fm A#m
And so you're back from outer space
D# G#
I just walked in to find you here without that look upon your face,
C# G7
I should have changed my fuckin' lock, I would've made you leave your key-
C C7
If I'd have known for just one second you'd be back to bother me.
[Chorus]
Fm A#m
Oh now go, walk out the door,
D# G#
Just turn around now, you're not welcome anymore.
C# G7
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with desire?
C C7
Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Fm A#m
Oh not I, I will survive,
D# G#
Yeah, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll be alive.
C# G7
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
C C7 Fm
I will survive, I will survive, Yeah, yeah...

[Verse 2]
Fm A#m
It took all the strength I had just not to fall apart,
D# G#
I'm tryin' hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart,
C# G7
And I spent oh so many nights just feelin' sorry for myself,
C C7
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high.
Fm A#m
And you'll see me with somebody new,
D# G#
I'm not that stupid little person still in love with you.
C# G7
And so you thought you'd just drop by and you expect me to be free,
C C7
But now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me,
[Chorus]
Fm A#m
Oh now go, walk out the door,
D# G#
Just turn around now, you're not welcome anymore.
C# G7
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with desire?
C C7
Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Fm A#m
Oh not I, I will survive,
D# G#
Yeah, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll be alive.
C# G7
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
C C7 Fm
I will survive, I will survive, Yeah, yeah...
