Surrender Words & Music: Rick Nielsen (Cheap Trick) This Is Fully Transcribed in the January/February 2009 Issue of Guitar E Surrender Words & Music: Rick Nielsen (Cheap Trick) This is fully transcribed in the January/February 2009 issue of Guitar Edge. Ab Bb [2x] [yes, it really does shift from Bb to B immediately here] B F# E B [etc.] Mother told me, yes she told me, I'd meet girls like you. She also told me, stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch. Just the other day, I heard of a soldier's falling off. E F# B Some Indonesian junk that's going 'round. CHORUS: B G#m F# E Mommy's all right, Daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird. B G# F# E A B Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay---, ay---. 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, Mommy isn't one of those; I've known her all these years." CHORUS: [repeat A to B 2x - then there's a half-tone shift to C] C G F C Whatever happened to all this season's "Losers of the Year"? C G F C Every time I got to thinking "Where'd they disappear?" F G C Then I woke up & mom and dad are rolling on the couch. F G C Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out. CHORUS: [new chords] C Am G F Mommy's all right, Daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird. C A G F Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay----, ay---. C F C G Away------! OUTRO: [repeat many times] C Am G F Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away. Under this, a second voice sings - changing with every repeat: (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright) [3x] (Bun E's alright, Tommy's alright) (Robin's alright, Rick's alright) (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright) (We're all alright, we're all alright) (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright) [repeat and out] .

Robin Zander (vocals, rhythm guitar), Rick Nielsen (lead guitar) and Tom Petersson (bass guitar) are part of the very fiber of American music, inspiring and delighting generations with their unique union of massive melodies and razorblade riffs, their own special brand of mischievous wit and maximum rock ‘n’ roll. Since the ‘70s, they’ve been blending elements of pop, punk and even metal in a way that is instantly catchy and recognizable. With timeless classics such as “I Want You to Want Me” and “Surrender,” CHEAP TRICK, now with drummer Daxx Nielsen, are a musical institution. The Rockford, IL band is as vital today as ever, having released three records in the last three years -- BANG ZOOM CRAZY...HELLO (2016), WE’RE ALL ALRIGHT (2017) and CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS (2017) –and toured relentlessly to packed audiences around the world. 2016 saw CHEAP TRICK's long-awaited induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The induction honored both the band and the pioneering sound that has earned them total record sales well in excess of 20 million featured appearances and more than 40 international Gold and Platinum certifications. 2017’s WE'RE ALL ALRIGHT! was yet another undisputed triumph for the band as the album's first single, "Long Time Coming," enjoyed an unprecedented run of 18 weeks at #1 on the Mediabase Classic Rock chart.

  • Cheap Trick - Surrender Episode 214
    Song Exploder Cheap Trick - Surrender Episode 214 Hrishikesh: You’re listening to Song Exploder, where musicians take apart their songs and piece by piece tell the story of how they were made. My name is Hrishikesh Hirway. (“Surrender” by CHEAP TRICK) Hrishikesh: This episode doesn’t contain any explicit language but I still wanted to flag it in case there are any parents out there who listen to the podcast with their kids, and if your kids are not old enough to know what an STD is yet then you might get some questions you’re not ready for. So just a heads up. (“Surrender” by CHEAP TRICK) Hrishikesh: The song “Surrender” by Cheap Trick was released in 1978. Rolling Stone called it the ultimate 70s teen anthem, and included it in their list of the greatest songs of all time. It’s been in a bunch of movies and tv shows - including South Park, Scrubs, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, New Girl, and Guardians of the Galaxy. Cheap Trick formed in Rockford, Illinois in 1973. They’ve released 20 studio albums, they’ve sold over 20 million records, and in 2016 they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Rick Nielsen is the guitarist in the band. He wrote “Surrender,” and for this episode, I talked to him about how the song was made. (“Surrender” by CHEAP TRICK) Rick: My name is Rick Nielsen from Cheap Trick. (Music fades out) Rick: Everybody I knew thought their parents were weird or, even if they're not weird to certain people, they're weird to the kid.

  • "Cheap Trick at Budokan" (Album)
    "Cheap Trick at Budokan"--Cheap Trick (1978) Added to the National Registry: 2019 Essay by Robert Lawson (guest post)* Cheap Trick At the end of April 1978, Cheap Trick flew to Japan for a six-date headlining tour. To coincide with this, the forthcoming studio album, "Heaven Tonight," was issued in Japan just ahead of its US release. Cheap Trick played shows in Fukuoka (April 25th), Nagoya (April 26th), Osaka (April 27th), Tokyo (April 28th and 30th) and Shizuoka (May 1st). The near- hysterical Japanese fans welcomed the band with rapturous applause. A special tour-book was created, using the exact same picture of lead vocalist Robin Zander and bassist Tom Petersson featured on the "Heaven Tonight" sleeve, but with the title "Concert in Japan" on the front cover. In July, an edited version of the first concert in Tokyo was shown on Japanese TV. The program, "Cheap Trick at Budokan," featured footage from the soundcheck, tracked the eager crowds filing in, and, eventually, followed the band onto the stage. With Zander positively glowing in an all-white three-piece suit and guitarist Rick Nielsen slashing away at his Hamer Standard prototype, the performance is an equal display of incredible showmanship and musicianship. Although all the footage is extremely valuable (and was even more so at the time), it is extra special to witness the previously unreleased, excellent tracks "Lookout" and "Can't Hold On" performed live, along with the 1955 Fats Domino hit "Ain't That a Shame" (which the band learned from John Lennon's 1975 "Rock 'n' Roll" album).
