Intro: EmDGC (x2)
Verse 1:
EmDC
I feel a separation coming on
EmDC
'Cause I know you want to be moving on
EmD
I wish it would snow tonight
CAm
You'd pull me in, avoid a fight
EmDC
'Cause I feel a separation coming on
Verse 2:
EmDC
Just prove that there is nothing left to try
EmDC
‘Cause the truth, I'd rather we just both deny
EmD
You kissed me with those open eyes
CAmEm
It says so much, it's no surprise to you,
DC
But I've got something left inside...
Chorus:

Don't surrender, surrender, surrender,

We were so in love back then, now you're listening

To what they say, Don't go that way

Remember, remember, December

Please remember

Verse 3:
EmDC
You said you wouldn't let them change your mind
EmDC
'Cause when we're together fire melts the ice

Our hearts are both on overdrive
CAm
Come with me let's run tonight
EmDC
Don't let these memories get left behind
Chorus:

Don't surrender, surrender, surrender,
