1. At Am first I was afraid I was Dm petrified
Kept thinking G I could never live without you Cmaj7 by my side
But I Fmaj7 spent so many nights, thinking Bm7 how you did me wrong
I grew Esus4 strong I learned E how to get along
And so you’re Am back from outer Dm space
I just walked G in to find you 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 Esus4 known for just one second you’d be E back to bother me
Chorus:Go on now Am go walk out the Dm door
Just turn a-G round now ‘cause you’re not Cmaj7 welcome anymore
Fmaj7 Weren’t you the one who tried to Bm7 hurt me with goodbye
Did you think I’d Esus4 crumble, you think I’d E lay down and die
Oh no, not Am I, I will sur-Dm vive
As G long as i know 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 sur-Esus4 vive, I will sur-E vive, (I will sur-Am vive)
2. Only the Am Lord could give me strength not to Dm fall apart
Though I tried G hard to mend the pieces of my Cmaj7 broken heart
And I spent Fmaj7 oh so many nights, just feeling Bm7 sorry for myself
I used to Esus4 cry, but now I E7 hold my head up high
And you see Am me, somebody Dm new
I’m not that G chained up little person still in Cmaj7 love with you
And so you Fmaj7 felt like dropping in, and just eBm7 xpect me to be free
Well, now I’m Esus4 saving all my loving, for some-E one who’s loving me
