Subject:  I Have To Surrender  by Ty Herndon
Album: Living In A Moment
Written by: Pat Bunch/Doug Johnson
Note: Thanks to Lluis Sala for album and writer's information.
I taped this off the radio.  The radio station was playing the 
song at a higher level of revolutions then it's suppose to be 
played at.  (makes the song faster playing which raises the
tone slightly)But I'm reasonable sure this is the correct key. 
Thanks to Tim NCSource1@aol for the help with the lyrics.

         I HAVE TO SURRENDER    Ty Herndon

Ab                   Db              Eb
All of my life I've fought hard for things
             Db  Ab    Db  Eb
that I have want-ed
Ab             Db        Eb           Db
Caught up and blindly believing the strongest
  Ab      Db Cm
survive
Eb                            Db
But here in your eyes I see everything
        Ab                  Eb
I ever dreamed of and I am afraid
Eb                 Db                  Ab
If I rush in if I move to fast I just might
                          Eb
frightened my one chance away

CHORUS:
      Eb                     Db
It's easy to be strong I've done it for so long
     Ab                    Eb
But this time I have to remember
Db                      Eb               Db        Ab
This time to get what I want I have to surrender

Ab                       Db           Eb        Db    Ab  Db Eb
Here I stand helplessly willing and waiting for your love
Ab                         Db            Eb      Db  Ab  Db Cm
When want became need, my heart had no choice at all-ll 
Eb                        Db
What will you do now it's up to you now
Ab                         Eb
It's so hard to wait but I will
Eb                 Db
God give me wisdom God give me strength
          Ab                     Eb
And the courage to simply stand still


chorus, lead, to bridge

BRIDGE:
Eb                              Ab
Here I am take me  Somehow you save me
                                  Eb
From a lifetime of not being all love can make me.

Chorus,
Eb                     Db
It's easy to be strong I've done it for so long
     Ab                    Eb
But this time I have to remember
Db                      Eb
This time to get what I want
      Ab                 Eb
This time I have to be tender
Db                       Eb
This time to get what I need
   Db        Ab
I have to surrender
