I Will Survive Tab

I like how this sounds:
-------


                                                       
At first I was afraid, I was petrified I kept thinkin' I could never live
                                                                   
without you by my side But then I spent so many nights just thinking how you’ve 
                                        
done me wrong And I grew strong, I learned how to get along...

                                                
And so you're back from outer space, I just walked in to find you here with 
                                                   
that, that look upon your face,  I should have changed my fucking lock, I 
                                                
would have made you leave your key- If I’d have known for just one second you'd 
     
be back to bother me. 


                                                              
Oh now go, walk out the door, Just turn around now, you're not welcome 
                                            
anymore. Weren't you the one who tried to break me with desire? Did you think
                              
I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

                                                              
Oh not I, I will survive, Yeah, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll be
                                             
alive. I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, I will 
                 
survive, I will survive, Yeah, yeah...


(SOLO)


                                                                
It took all the strength I had just not to fall apart,  I’m tryin' hard to 
                                                
mend the pieces of my broken heart, And I spent oh so many nights just 
                                                
feelin' sorry for myself, I used to cry, But now I hold my head up high. 


                                                
And you’ll see me with somebody new, I'm not that stupid little person still 
                                                                 
in love with you. And so you thought you’d just drop by and you expect me to 
                                                
be free, But now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me, 



                                                              
Oh now go, walk out the door, Just turn around now, you're not welcome 
                                            
anymore. Weren't you the one who tried to break me with desire? Did you think
                              
I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?

                                                              
Oh not I, I will survive, Yeah, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll be
                                             
alive. I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give, I will 
                
survive, I will survive, Yeah, yeah...
