Survivors by Matthew West
Intro: C Am F C (x2)
Verse 1:
C
You've been dropped like a dream to the floor
Am
You've been told not to try anymore
F
But you're wakened from yesterday's war
C
Cause you're a survivor
C
And your strength has been stolen away
Am
And your faith has been worn to a fray
F
But you live to live on one more day
C
Cause you're a survivor
Chorus:
C
And nothing can stop you now
Am
Nothing can back you down
F
You never give up
You never give in
C
You're a survivor
C Am F C
Verse 2:
C
For the phone call that tore you apart
Am
For the fear that gripped your heart
F
For the moment you saw who you are
C
And what you're made of
C
For the cancer that stole all your hair
Am
For the smile like you just don't care
F
For your hope in midnight prayer
C
You're a survivor
Chorus:
C
And nothing can stop you now
Am
Nothing can back you down
F
You never give up
You never give in
C
You're a survivor
C Am F C
Verse 3:
C
I'm convinced neither death nor life
Am
Neither demons or angels of light
F
Shadows present a future bright
C
Can seperate us
C
From the love that will lead us on
Am
To the hope when all hope is gone
F
'Til the day heaven calls us home
C
We are survivors
Chorus:
C
And nothing can stop us now
Am
Nothing can back us down
F
We never give up we never give in
C
And nothing can stop us now
Am
Nothing can back us down
F
We never give up we never give in
C Am F C
Cause we are survivors
