[Intro]

Gm    Cm/G    D/G      D#/G F/G


[Verse 1]
G                             C/G
You could never know what it's like.
        D/G                    G
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice.
              Am7/G                  C/G      D
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you.
        Em                       C               G   Am/G G
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you  use.
G                                C/G
And did you think this fool could never win?
       D/G                 G
Well look at me, I'm coming back again.
        Am7/G             C/G  D
I got a taste of love in a simple way.
           Em                          C                  G Am7/G G
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade a  -  way.


[Chorus]
               Gm7      Gm                    Dm/F
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did.
               Cm7                           D#maj7     F
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.
Gm7       Gm           Dm/F
I'm still standing after all this time.
                 Cm7                        D7
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
            Gm        Cm7 Cm7 D7
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!
            Gm        Cm7 Cm7 D7         D#/D   F/D
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!


[Verse 2]
G                         C/G
Once I never could hope to win.
       D/G                        G
You starting down the road leaving me again.
      Am7/G                       C/G    D
The threats you made were meant to cut me down.
           Em              C                G  Am7/G G
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown  by now.


[Chorus]
                Gm7      Gm                   Dm/F
Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did.
               Cm7                           D#maj7     F
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.
Gm7      Gm            Dm/F
I'm still standing after all this time.
                Cm7                         D7 D7 D7
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
            Gm       Cm7 Cm7 D7
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!
            Gm       Cm7 Cm7 D7          D#/D   F/D
I'm still standing.  Yeah yeah yeah!

               Cm7                           D#maj7     F
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid.

I'm still standing after all this time.
                      Cm7                   D7 D7 D7
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind.
