I Will Survive (Maggie) Gloria Gaynor Intro - tremolo: At [Em] first I was afraid I was [Am] petrified Kept thinkin' [D] I could never live without you [G] by my side But then I [Em] spent so many nights, thinkin' [Am] How you did me wrong And I grew [B7] strong... and I learned [B7] how to get along Verse 1: [NC] And so you're [Em] back... from outer [Am] space I just walked [D] in to find you here with that sad [G] look upon your face I should have [Em] changed that stupid look, I should have [Am] made you leave your key If I'd 'ave [B7] known for just one second you'd be [B7] back to bother me Verse 2: Go on now [Em] go... walk out the [Am] door Just turn a[D]round now... 'cause you're not [G] welcome anymore [Em] Weren't you the one who tried to [Am] hurt me with goodbye Did I [B7] crumble... Did you think I'd [B7] lay down and die? Chorus: Oh no, not [Em] I... I will sur[Am]vive Oh as [D] long as I know how to love I [G] know I'll stay alive I've got [Em] all my life to live... I've got [Am] all my love to give And I'll sur[B7] vive... I will sur[B7] vive... [Same as chorus] Hey [Em] hey [Am] [D] [G] [Em] [Am] [B7] [B7] Verse 3: It took [Em] all the strength I had... not to [Am] fall apart Kept trying' [D] hard to mend the pieces of my [G] broken heart And I spent [Em] oh so many nights just feeling [Am] sorry for myself I used to [B7] cry... but now I [B7] hold my head up high Verse 4: And you see [Em] me... somebody [Am] new I'm not that [D] chained up little person still in [G] love with you And so you [Em] felt like droppin' in and just ex[Am]pect me to be free Now I'm [B7] savin' all my lovin' for some[B7]one who's lovin' me Verse 5: Go on now [Em] go... walk out the [Am] door Just turn a[D]round now... 'cause you're not [G] welcome anymore [Em] Weren't you the one who tried to [Am] hurt me with goodbye Did I [B7] crumble... did you think I'd [B7] lay down and die? Chorus: Oh no, not [Em] I... I will sur[Am]vive Oh as [D] long as I know how to love I [G] know I'll stay alive I've got [Em] all my life to live... I've got [Am] all my love to give And I'll sur[B7] vive... I will sur[B7] vive... [Em*] [Single Strum]
