-You could do either |Em D G C|, |Em D G Am|, or |Em D C Am| and |Em D C| or |Em D Am|.
-I really couldn't decide between C and Am, so choose yourself :)
-BTW These lyrics are 100% correct- they’re straight from the CD’s booklet of
lyrics. I repeat: THE LYRICS ARE 100% CORRECT!
CAPO 1
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
