Tuning:standard
 
This is the very first tablature I've submitted, so keep in mind that it's far
from perfect. This is the whole song and it's the way I use to play it.
(It's possible to play the "intro" part through whole song, it's also possible to
mix between the tabs and chords while playing.) Enjoy!

INTRO:
 
First I was afraid, I was petrified
 
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
 
But I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
 
I grew strong, I learned how to carry on
 
and so you're...
 
                          (Beginners Rythm: Down,Down,Up,Up,Down,Up)
 
    Am              Dm(2)
...back from outer space
              G                                 C
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
              F                                    Dm
I should have changed my stupid lock I should have made you leave your key
         E               E               E           E
If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
 
{Chorus}
          Am              Dm(2)
Go on now go walk out the door
          G                             C
just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
   F                             Dm
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
              E               E              E
you think I'd crumble you think I'd lay down and die
 
           Am           Dm(2)
Oh no, not I, I will survive
   G                                  C
as long as i know how to love I know I will stay alive
         F                             Dm
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
            E           E
and I'll survive, I will survive
 
 
{Verse Two}
        Am                            Dm(2)
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
            G                             C
kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
       F                                  Dm
and I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
          E                    E
I used to cry,   Now I hold my head up high
            Am          Dm(2)
and you see me somebody new
             G                                 C
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
           F                                  Dm
and so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
        E                           E
now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
 
{Repeat Chorus}
 
{Fade}
