I Will Survive
as performed by Cake
from "Fashion Nugget"
Intro:
 a5  d5  g5  c5  f5  b5  e  e7
(Verse 1) (same as intro)
a5                           d5
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
                g5                             c5
I kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
           f5                                 b5
But then I spent so many nights just thinking how you'd done me wrong
       e
I grew strong
          e7
I learned how to get along
And so you're back from outer-space
I just walked in to find you here without that look upon your face
I should have changed my fuckin' lock
I would have made you leave your key
If I'd I known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

(Chorus)
Oh now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now, your 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! oh,

(Verse 2)
It took all the strength I had just not to fall apart
I'm trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry,
Now I hold my head up high
And you 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

(Chorus)
