[Intro]
Dm    Gm/D    A/D      A#/D C/D
Dm    Gm/D    A/D      A#/D C/D


[Verse 1]
D                             G/D
You could never know what it's like.
        A/D                    D
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice.
              Em7/D                  G/D      A
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you.
        Bm                       G               D   Em/D D
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you  use.
D                                G/D
And did you think this fool could never win?
       A/D                 D
Well look at me, I'm coming back again.
        Em7/D             G/D  A
I got a taste of love in a simple way.
           Bm                          G                  D Em7/D D
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade a  -  way.


[Chorus]
               Dm7      Dm                    Am/C
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did.
               Gm7                           A#maj7     C
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.
Dm7       Dm           Am/C
I'm still standing after all this time.
                 Gm7                        A7
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
            Dm        Gm7 Gm7 A7
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!
            Dm        Gm7 Gm7 A7         A#/A   C/A
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!


[Verse 2]
D                         G/D
Once I never could hope to win.
       A/D                        D
You starting down the road leaving me again.
      Em7/D                       G/D    A
The threats you made were meant to cut me down.
           Bm              G                D  Em7/D D
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown  by now.


[Chorus]
                Dm7      Dm                   Am/C
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did.
               Gm7                           A#maj7     C
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.
Dm7      Dm            Am/C
I'm still standing after all this time.
                Gm7                         A7 A7 A7
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
            Dm       Gm7 Gm7 A7
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!
            Dm       Gm7 Gm7 A7          A#/A   C/A
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!

[Chorus/Outro]
                Dm7     Dm                    Am/C
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did.
               Gm7                           A#maj7     C
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.
Dm7      Dm            Am/C
I'm still standing after all this time.
                      Gm7                   A7 A7 A7
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
            Dm      Gm7 Gm7  A7
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!
            Dm      Gm7 Gm7 A7
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!
