Key: :[Em] (w: Elton John, Bernie Taupin) (BPM: 180)
INTRO:
[Em] [Am/E] [B/E] ^
[C/E] ^
[D/E] :
[x2]
VERSE 1:
[E] You could never know
[A/E] what it's like
Your
[B/E] blood like winter freezes
[E] just like ice
And there's a
[F#m7/E] cold lonely light that shines from
[B] you
You'll
[C#m] wind up like the wreck you
[A] hide, behind that
[E] mask you use
VERSE 2:
[E] And did you think this fool could
[A/E] never win
Well,
[B/E] look at me I'm comin'
[E] back again
I got a
[F#m7/E] taste of love in a simple
[B] way
and if you
[C#m] need to know while I'm still
[A] standing, you just
[E] fade away
PRE-CHORUS:
Don't you know
[Em] I'm still standing, better than I
[Bm7] ever did
Lookin' like a
[Am] true survivor, feelin' like a ^
[C] little kid
[D]
[Em] I'm still standing, after
[Bm7] all this time
Pickin' up the
[Am] pieces of my life without you
[Bm7] on my mind
CHORUS:
^
[C] I'm ^
[D] still
[Em] standing,
[Am7] yeah, yeah,
[B7] yeah
^
[C] I'm ^
[D] still
[Em] standing,
[Am7] yeah, yeah,
[B7] yeah
VERSE 3:
[E] Once I never could've
[A/E] hope to win
You
[B/E] starting down the road leaving
[E] me again
The
[F#m7/E] threats you made were meant to cut me
[B] down
And if our
[C#m] love was just a
[A] circus, you'd be a
[E] clown by now
