G                D
How long till it feels
         Em                         C
Like the wounds finally starting to heal?
G                D
How long till it feels
         Em                     C
Like I'm more than a spoke in a wheel?

Em 
Most nights, I fear
C
That I'm not enough
G                           D
I've had my share of Monday mornings when I can't get up
   Em                C
But, when hope is lost
               D
And I come undone

                          G
I swear to God, I'll survive
               D
If it kills me to
                     Em
I'm gonna get up and try
                         C
If it's the last thing I do
                            G
I've still got something to give
                       D
Though it hurts sometimes
                      Em
I'm gonna get up and live
                      C
Until the day that I die
Cm                       G
I swear to God, I'll survive

G                 D
How long till you know
          Em                        C
That, in truth, you know nothing at all?
G                D
How far will you go
        Em                    C
To get back to the place you belong?

Em 
Most nights, I fear
C
That I'm not enough
G                        D
But I refuse to spend my best years rotting in the Sun
Em                C
So, when hope is lost
                 D
And I come undone

                         G
I swear to God, I'll survive
               D
If it kills me to
                     Em
I'm gonna get up and try
                        C
If it's the last thing I do
                             G
I've still got something to give
                     D
Though it hurts sometimes
                     Em
I'm gonna get up and live
                     C
Until the day that I die
Cm                     G    D
I swear to God, I'll survive
                       Em   C Cm
I swear to God, I'll survive

                     G
I swear to God, I'll survive
               D
If it kills me to
                     Em
I'm gonna get up and try
                         C
If it's the last thing I do
                            G
I've still got something to give
                    D
Though it hurts sometimes
                     Em
I'm gonna get up and live
                     C
Until the day that I die
                      G
I swear to God, I'll survive
