Surrender*: Cheap Trick CAPO II
A7sus4/G A (repeat 4x)
[VERSE 1]
A E D A
Mother told me, yes she told me, I'd meet girls like you.
E D A
She also told me, stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch
D E A
Just the other day I heard of a soldier's falling off
D E A
Some Indonesian junk that's going 'round
[CHORUS]
A F#m7 Esus4 D
Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird
A F#m7 Esus4 D
Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away....away, away--ay-ay-ay
A7sus4/G A (repeat 2x)
[VERSE 2]
Father says your mother's right, she's really up on things.
Before we married, mommy served in the WACs in the Philippines.
Now I had heard the WACs recruited old maids for the war
But mom isn't one of those, I've known her all these years.
[CHORUS]
Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away....away, away--ay-ay-ay
[VERSE 3]
Whatever happened to all this season's loosers of the year?
Every time I got to thinking 'Where'd they disappear?'
Then I woke up, mom and dad are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.
[CHORUS]
Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away....away, away--ay-ay-ay
