Song

Surrender
By: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Album: Anthology, Through the Years
Petty wrote this song in 1977 and recorded as a bonus track of the anthology in 2000.
This is my favorite Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers song besides "You and Me". My guitar
teacher did most of this. I'm not sure if its completely correct. So, yah. Hope you enjoy
it. -Mike
Surrender
Intro: B E Esus E
Dont talk crazy now, take it easy
You just cant hold out forever 
Dont you lie to me, you said you loved me
Dont say you dont remember 
Cuz you told me
Yeah, you did
And I'm not gonna let you forget
Well I'm down on my knees and I'm begging again
You tell me why you have to pretend
I know you want me why dont you give in
Surrender   
Dont let me down
I just cant hang around
Feeling this way forever
On your balcony
You said you loved me
Dont say you dont remember
Cuz you told me
Yeah, you did
And I'm not gonna let you forget
Well I'm down on my knees and I'm begging again
You tell me why you have to pretend
I know you want me why dont you give in
Surrender   
Surrender
to me....
Babe surrender
Surrender!
(solo)
Surrender
to me....
Babe surrender
Surrender!
C# A B E#
"wherever that wind might blow, wherever that river rolls, you know i will go with you.
just you and me and the road ahead." -Tom Petty
