INTRO: Em D G C (x2)

VERSE 1:
   Em     D          C
I feel a separation coming on
          Em       D              C
'Cause I know     you want to be moving on
Em               D
I wish it would snow tonight
       C            Am
You'd pull me in, avoid a fight
          Em         D          C
'Cause I feel     a separation coming on


VERSE 2:
      Em           D                C
Just prove   that there is nothing left to try
            Em         D              C
‘Cause the truth, I'd rather we just both deny
     Em                   D
You kissed me with those open eyes
     C                Am              Em
It says so much, it's no surprise to you,
     D                  C
But I've got something left inside...


CHORUS:
          D          Em         C
Don't surrender, surrender, surrender,
          D          Em         C
Please remember, remember, December
               G                          C
We were so in love back then, now you're listening
   Am                   Em
To what they say, Don't go that way
   D         Em         C
Remember, remember, December
          Em   D G C
Please remember
          Em   D G C
Don't surrender...


VERSE 3:
     Em           D                C
You said     you wouldn't let them change your mind
              Em      D             C
'Cause when we're    together fire melts the ice
      Em                D
Our hearts are both on overdrive
 C                 Am
Come with me let's run tonight
      Em             D            C
Don't let     these memories get left behind


CHORUS:
          D          Em         C
Don't surrender, surrender, surrender,
          D          Em         C
Please remember, remember, December
               G                          C
We were so in love back then, now you're listening
   Am                   Em
To what they say, Don't go that way
