I Will Survive [Am]Gloria Gaynor

Intro - tremolo
At Am first I was afraid I was Dm petrified
Kept thinkin' G I could never live without you C by my side
But then I Am spent so many nights, thinkin'
Dm How you did me wrong... and I grew E7 strong... and I learned
E7 how to get along

Verse 1
And so you're Am back... from outer Dm space
I just walked G in to find you here with that sad C look upon your face
I should have Am changed that stupid lock, I should have Dm made you leave your key
If I'd've E7 known for just one second you'd be E7 back to bother me

Verse 2
Go on now Am go... walk out the Dm door
Just turn aGround now... 'cause you're not C welcome anymore
Am Weren't you the one who tried to Dm hurt me with goodbye
Did I E7 crumble... Did you think I'd E7 lay down and die?

Chorus
Oh no, not Am I... I will surDmvive
Oh as G long as I know how to love I C know I'll stay alive
I've got Am all my life to live... I've got Dm all my love to give
And I'll surE7vive... I will surE7vive... Hey Am hey Dm G C
Am Dm E7 E7

Verse 3
It took Am all the strength I had... not to Dm fall apart
Kept trying' G hard to mend the pieces of my C broken heart
And I spent Am oh so many nights just feeling Dm sorry for myself
I used to E7 cry... but now I E7 hold my head up high

Verse 4
And you see Am me... somebody Dm new
I'm not that G chained up little person still in C love with you
And so you Am felt like droppin' in and just exDmpect me to be free
Now I'm E7 savin' all my lovin' for someE7one who's lovin' me

Verse 5
Go on now Am go... walk out the Dm door
Just turn aGround now... 'cause you're not C welcome anymore
Am Weren't you the one who tried to Dm hurt me with goodbye
Did I E7 crumble... did you think I'd E7 lay down and die?

Chorus
