Surrender — The Dropkick Murphys

I did the chords for this song a while back and I've yet to figure out the intro 
and fill, so i'll give you guys this.

i tried my best with positioning the chord names over where they are to be played, 
but i'm sure everyone will get the point.

the way i pick the lead guitar is: (for Bb to F to Ab)

|—————————————————x———x——x——x—————x—       
|—x———x——x——x—————x———x——x——x—————x—      basically pick the—
|—x———x——x——x—————x———x——x——x—————x—          —higher half of the chord,
|—x————————————x——x————————————x——x—      then the lower half once,
|—x————————————x——x————————————x————      then the entire next chord.

Intro:

Bb——F——Ab——Eb

Bb——F——Ab——Eb——Bb


Bb                  F
I was at my weakest state
F                       Ab
And you kept pushing me on
Ab                               Eb
You gave me something to believe in
Eb                       Bb
And it keeps me standing strong
Bb                      F
These lessons that I've learned
F                       Ab
These things I'll carry on
Ab                              Eb
And when you're gone I'll honor you
Eb                Eb
Each day, however long



Bb
This glimmer of hope was never enough
F
To guide me through the darkness like a diamond in the rough
Ab
I held out for and I received
Eb
A pain that never left with no reprieve
Bb
Like a toast at a table where resentments run free
F                                               Ab  Eb
There can't be any truth where there's no honesty


 
Bb                     F
Like an apple from the tree
F                           Ab
you were lock jawed in your ways
Ab              Eb    
A reminder of myself in those long forgotten days
Bb                          F
Thought you'd stayed off my path
F                   Ab                                Eb
But I just couldn't see that the blood that's in your veins
Eb
Is the same that runs through me


Bb
This glimmer of hope was never enough
F
To guide me through the darkness like a diamond in the rough
Ab
I held out for and I received
Eb
A pain that never left with no reprieve
Bb
Like a toast at a table where resentments run free
      F                                         Ab  Eb   F
There can't be any truth where there's no honesty


         Ab               Eb                     
I had it all but lost my faith
              Bb          F
And then you lead me to it
Ab               Eb  F
Today I'll carry on
Ab                       Eb
I had it all but lost my faith
        Bb              F
And now I've renewed it
      Ab                  Eb
These things I'll carry on

There can't be any truth where there's no honesty



         Ab               Eb                     
I had it all but lost my faith
              Bb              F
