[Intro]
E7
AAm7t first I was afraid, I Dm7was petrified
Kept thinking GI should never lG7ive without you bCmaj7y my side
But then I spFmaj7ent so many nights thinking Bm7b5how you did me wrong
I grew E7sus4strong and I learned E7how to carry on
And so you're Am7back from outer spDm7ace
I just walked iGn to find you hG7ere with that sad Cmaj7look upon your face
I should have cFmaj7hanged that stupid lock I should have Bm7b5made you leave your key
If I had E7sus4known for just one second you'd be bE7ack to bother me
Go on now Am7go, walk out the dDm7oor
Just turn arounGd now, 'G7cause your not Cmaj7welcome anymore
WFmaj7eren't you the one who tried to Bm7b5hurt me with goodbye
You think I'd E7sus4crumble, you think I'd lE7ay down and die?
I'm a survAm7ivor, I'm not gon' giDm7ve up
I'm not gon' sE7top, I'm gon' work haAm7rder
I'm a survFmaj7ivor, I'm gonna Bm7b5make it
I will surE7sus4vive, keep on survivinE7g
IAm7t Took all the strength Dm7I had not to Fall apart
Kept trying haGrd to mend the pG7ieces of m broken Cmaj7heart
And I spent oFmaj7h so many nights just feelinBm7b5g sorry for myself
I used E7sus4to cry but now I hold E7my head up high
I'm a survAm7ivor, I'm not gon' giDm7ve up
I'm not gon' sE7top, I'm gon' work haAm7rder
