I Will Survive – On the Rocks

Gloria Gaynor

Chords provided by Moselele

[Am] First I was afraid, I was [Dm] petrified

Kept thinking [G] I could never [G7] live without you [CMaj7] by my side

But I [FMaj7] spent so many nights thinking [Bm7] how you did me wrong

I grew [E7sus] strong, I learned [E7] how to carry on

and so you’re [Am] back from outer [Dm] space

I just walked [G] in to find you [G7] here with that sad [CMaj7] look upon your face

I should have [FMaj7] changed my stupid lock, I should have [Bm7] made you leave your key

If I had [E7Sus] known for just one second you’d be [E7] back to bother me

Go on now [Am] go walk out the [Dm] door

just turn [G] around now, [G7] ’cause you’re not [CMaj7] welcome anymore

[FMaj7] weren’t you the one who tried to [Bm7] hurt me with goodbye

you think I’d [E7sus] crumble, you think I’d [E7] lay down and die

Oh no, not [Am] I, I will [Dm] survive

as [G] long as I know [G7] how to love I [CMaj7] know I will stay alive

I’ve got [FMaj7] all my life to live, I’ve got [Bm7] all my love to give

and I’ll [E7sus] survive, I will [E7] survive

[Am] [Dm] [G] [G7] [CMaj7]

[FMaj7] [Bm7] [E7Sus] [E7]

It took [Am] all the strength I had not to [Dm] fall apart

kept trying [G] hard to mend the [G7] pieces of my [CMaj7] broken heart

and I [FMaj7] spent oh so many nights, just feeling [Bm7] sorry for myself

I used to [E7sus] cry, now I [E7] hold my head up high

and you see [Am] me, somebody [Dm] new

I’m not that [G] chained up little [G7] person still in [CMaj7] love with you

www.moselele.co.ukand so you [FMaj7] felt like dropping in and just [Bm7] expect me to be free

now I’m [E7sus] saving all my loving for [E7] someone who’s loving me
