I Will Survive Chords by Gloria Gaynor

[Start]

[Verse]
E7 Am                 Dm             
At first I was afraid I was petrified
Dm7           G                  C                     
Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side
F                               Bm7                          
But then I spent so many nights thinkin' how you did me wrong
      Esus4             E                       
And I grew strong and I learned how to get along
       Am               Dm         
And so you're back from outer space
  G                                         C                      
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
         F                            
I should have changed that stupid lock
         Bm7                         
I should have made you leave your key
       Esus4                                E7                  
If I'd have known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
      Am          Dm          
Go on now go walk out the door
     G                             C                   F
Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore ■
                        Bm7                          
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
              Esus4      
Did you think I'd crumble
              E7                  
Did you think I'd lay down and die


[Chorus]
      Am           Dm     
Oh no not I I will survive
G                                C                     
Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
     F                                Bm7                    
I've got all my life to live and I've got all my love to give
         Esus4          E7            
And I'll survive I will survive heyhey

[Verse]
Am                                       Dm           
Only the Lord could give me strength not to fall apart
         G7                               G         Cmaj7
Though I tried hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
      F                            Bm7                     
And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
          Esus4       E7                    
I used to cry but now I hold my head up high
        Am     Dm          
And you see me somebody new
        G                                   C               
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
       F                                  Bm7                 
And so you felt like droppin' in and just expect me to be free
     Esus4                            E7                     
Well now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me


[Chorus]
      Am              Dm      
Go on now go walk out the door
     G                      Cmaj7                      F
Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore ■
                                               Bm7    
Weren't you the one who tried to crush me with goodbye
              Esus4      
Did you think I'd crumble
              E7                  
Did you think I'd lay down and die

Oh no not I I will survive
G                                 Cmaj7

     F                                Bm7                    
I've got all my life to live and I've got all my love to give

And I'll survive I will survive oh ■

And I will survive I I I will survive
