No Capo 
Into  Em7 - D - D/F# - G

      Em7               D
I was born three months too early
     D/F#                   G
The doctor gave me thirty days
       Em7         D
But I must have had my mama's will
    D/F#           G
And Gods amazing grace
   Em7                 D
I guess I'll keep on livin'
    D/F#               G
Even if this loves to die for
             C
'Cause your bags are packed and I ain't cryin'

You're walking out and I'm not trying
                                        A
To change your mind cause I was born to be


[Chorus]
     G
The baby girl without a chance
    D
A victim of circumstance
    Em7                  D
The one who ought a give up,
                G          A
but she's just too hard headed
    G
A single mom who works two jobs
      D
Who loves her kids and never stops
      Em7                D           G
With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter
A               Em7 - D - D/F# - G x2
I'm a survivor

          Em7            D
I don't believe in self pity
   D/F#             G
It only brings you down
            Em7              D
May be the queen of broken hearts
            D/F#              G
But I don't hide behind the crown
          Em7                D
When the deck is stacked against me
        D/F#              G
I just play a different game
      C
My roots are planted in the past

And though my life is changing fast
                          A
Who I am is who I want to be


[Chorus]
    G
The baby girl without a chance
    D
A victim of circumstance
    Em7                  D
The one who ought a give up,
                G          A
but she's just too hard headed
    G
A single mom who works two jobs
      D
Who loves her kids and never stops
      Em7                D           G
With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter
A               Em7 - D - D/F# - G x2
I'm a survivor


(Instrumental)   G - D - Em7 - D - G - A


    G
A single mom who works two jobs
      D
Who loves her kids and never stops
      Em7                D           G
With gentle hands and a heart of a fighter
A             Em7 - D - D/F# - G x2
I'm a survivor
       Em7               D
But I must have had my mamas will
     D/F#          G
And Gods amazing grace
(I'm a survivor)
