I Surrender (Rhythm Guitar)

As you can probably tell, this tab is NOT tailored to the album (CD) version of the song. It's instead modeled after the DVD version, which you can find on YouTube. Its duration is 10:27.

You have several options in terms of combining the lead and rhythm if you are the only electric guitarist on your team. You can easily get away with just playing lead, but some worship leaders will prefer you to also play the rhythm parts for intro and such. Coordinate with your worship leader, as he/she is the driving vision behind your team.

If you are rhythm, it's incredibly important that you maintain that support/rhythm role while still standing out for places in the song such as the intro. If you have in-ears or monitors, it should be fairly easy, but I suggest having your sound crew give you feedback if you don't in case you're too quiet or loud at certain parts.

God bless,

-John Lee
