🎸 Verse 1:

C                  F                                Am
I keep making lists, a million things I need to fix
                 F                                C
I make everyone crazy, is it somethin' about me?
                          F                             Am
I keep tightenin' my grip, but I aim so much I miss
                       F
And I'm fightin' the river

🎸 Bridge:

              F             G
When I try to hold it all together
         Am               G
But it's just not gettin' better


🎸 Chorus:

C           F
Surrender, mm
C           F
Surrender, mm
     Am                         G
It's breakin' my heart 'cause I don't understand
    C                    F                C          F
Why so much is out of my hands
I have to remember
C          F
Surrender, mm


🎸 Bridge:

F                       Am
Oh
I keep learnin' the hard way
F                       Am
Oh, keep forgettin' how to pray
                    Gsus4   G
Someone tell me I'm o-     -kay


🎸 Verse 2:
C                                F
I climbed a mountain I could not resist
                                  Am
And I hit bottom at the top of it
                F
I was broken wide open


🎸 Bridge:

          F              G
There's a freedom in the freefall
      Am            G
Wanna scream, but I whisper


🎸 Chorus:

C           F
Surrender, mm
C           F
Surrender, oh
    C
Oh, surrender (it's breakin' my heart 'cause I don't understand)
F
(I just surrender instead)
            C
I've got to remember, ooh (it's breakin' my heart 'cause I don't understand)
     F
(Why so much is out of my hands)
           C          F     C             F
(I have to remember)        (Surrender)   (Surrender)
C          F
Surrender, mm (oh)
