[C]I'm so glad you made time to see me
[AM] How's life, tell me how's your family
[F]I haven't seem [C]them in a [G] while
[C]You've been good, busier than ever
[Am]We small talk, work and the weather
[F]Your guard is up [C] and I know [G]why
[Am]Because the last time [G] you saw me
[C] Is still burned in the back of your [F]mind
[Am]You gave me roses[G] and I left them there to [F] die
[C]So this is me swallowing my pride
[Em]Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry[F] for that night
[C]And I go back to December [G]all the time
[C]It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[Em]Wishing I'd realized what I had when you [F]were mine
[C] I go back to December,[G] turn around and make it [F]alright
[Am]I go back to December [G]all the time
[C] [Am] [F] [C] [Am] [F]
[C]These days I haven't been sleeping
[Am]Staying up playing back myself leaving
[C]When your birthday passed[G]and I didn't [F]call
[C]Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
[Am]I watched you laughing from the passenger side
[F]And realized I loved you in the[G] fall
[Am]And then the cold came, [G]the dark days
[C]When fear crept into my m [F]ind
[Am]You gave me all your love[G] And all I gave you was [F]goodbye
[C]So this is me swallowing my pride
[Em]Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that[F] night
[C]And I go back to December [G] all the time
[C]It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[Em]Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were [F]mine
[C] I go back to December,[G] turn around and and change my own [F]mind
[Am]I go back to December [G]all the time
[C] [Am] [F] [C] [Am] [F]
[Am]I miss your tan skin and your [F]sweet smile
[C]So good to me, [G]so right
[Am]And how you held me [F]in your arms that September [C] night
[G]The first time you ever saw me cry
[Am]Maybe this is wishful thinking
[F]Probably mindless dreaming
[C]But if we loved again,[G] I swear I'd love you right
[Am]I'd go back in time[F] and change it, [G] but I can't
[Am]So if the chain is [F]on your door, [G]I understand
[C]So this is me swallowing my pride
[Em]Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for [F]that night
[C]And I go back to December [G]all the time
[C]It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[Em]Wishing I'd realized what I had[F] when you were mine
[C]I go back to December, [G]turn around and make it [F]alright
[Am]I go back to December[G] all the time
