I Will Survive Chords by Gloria Gaynor

[Start]

[Verse]
Am                    Dm             
■  First I was afraid I was petrified
G                                C                     
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
    F                           Bm7                          
But then I spent so many nights thinking 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                         
I just walked in to find you here
          C                      
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                          
If I'd a known for just one second
E7                        
You'd be back to bother me
Am               Dm                G              
Woah now go walk out the door just turn around now
              C                   F
'cause you're not welcome anymore ■
                                              Bm7    
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
              Esus4                     E                   
Did you think I'd crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die


[Chorus]
Am              Dm     
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

[Verse]
   Am                        Dm           
It took all the strength not to fall apart
G7                       G             C              
Just trying 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            Cmaj7
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you  
       F                             Bm7                      
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
    E7      Esus4                    E7                     
But now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
                      Am                       
Go on go walk out the door just turn around now


[Chorus]
                  Dm             
'cause you're not welcome anymore
                                          G           
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
        G                                                   
Did you think I'd crumble did you think I'd lay down and die
C                         
Oh no not I I will survive
                            F                            
Oh as long as I know how to ■ love I know I'll stay alive
                     F                                       
I've got all my life to live and I've got all my love to give
Esus4                          
And I'll survive I will survive
                               E7                  
Go on now go walk out the door just turn around now
       E7                        
'cause you're not welcome anymore
