Verse 1:
Am
  She reads a book from 
 G
across the street
Dm
  Waiting for someone 
            C     E&G#
that she'll never meet 
Am
  Talk over coffee for 
   G
an hour or two
Dm
  She wonders why I'm 
          C      E&G#
always in a good mood 
Dm
  Killing time before 
     G
she struts her stuff
Dm
  She needs support and 
       C        E&G#
I've become the crutch 
Am
  She'll never know how 
         G
much she means to me
Dm
  I'd play the game 
            C   E&G#
but I'm the referee 


Chorus 1:
   F
Surrender… every word 
      G
every thought, every sound 
   Am
Surrender… every touch, 
       Dm
every smile, every frown 
   F
Surrender… all the pain 
        G
we've endured until now 
   Am
Surrender… all the hope 
       Dm
that I lost you have found

Verse 2:
Am                            G
  Even though I know what I'm looking for
Dm                         C        E&G#
  She's got a brick wall behind her door 
Am                       G
  I'd travel time and confess to her 
Dm                               C    E&G#
  But I'm afraid she'd shoot the messenger
