D MajorD
I'm so glad you made the time to see me
B minorBm
How's life, tell me how's your family
G+G D MajorD 
A augmentedA
I haven't seen them in a while
D MajorD
You've been good, busier than ever
B minorBm
We small talk, work and the weather
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
You're guard is up, and I know why
B minorBm A augmentedA
Because the last time you saw me
D MajorD G+G
It's still burned in the back of your mind
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
You gave me roses and I left them there to die
D MajorD
So this is me swallowing my pride
F# minorF#m
Standing in front of you saying
G+G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go
D MajorD A augmentedA
Back to December all the time
D MajorD
It turns out freedom ain't
(D MajorD)
Nothing but missing you
F# minorF#m
Wishing I'd realized what I had
G+G
When you were mine
D MajorD
I'd go back to December,
A augmentedA G+G
Turn around and make it all right
B minorBm *once A*
I go back to December all the time
D MajorD B minorBm G+G (2x)
D MajorD
These days I haven't been sleeping
B minorBm
Stayin' up playing back myself leaving
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
D MajorD
Then I think about summer all the beautiful times
B minorBm
I watch you laughing from the passenger side
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
And realized I loved you in the fall
B minorBm A augmentedA
And then the cold came the dark days
D MajorD G+G
When fear crept into my mind
B minorBm
You gave me all your love and
A augmentedA G+G
All I gave you was goodbye
D MajorD
So this is me swallowing my pride
F# minorF#m
Standing in front of you saying
G+G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go
D MajorD A augmentedA
Back to December all the time
D MajorD
It turns out freedom ain't
(D MajorD)
Nothing but missing you
F# minorF#m
Wishing I'd realized what I had
G+G
When you were mine
D MajorD
I'd go back to December,
A augmentedA G+G
Turn around and change my own mind
B minorBm A augmentedA
I go back to December all the time
D MajorD B minorBm G+G (2x)
B minorBm G+G
I miss your tan skin your sweet smile
D MajorD A augmentedA
So good to me, so right
B minorBm G+G
And how you held me in your arms
D MajorD
That September night
A augmentedA B minorBm -stop
The first time you ever saw me cry
G+G -stop
Maybe this is wishful thinking
D MajorD
Probably mindless dreaming
(D MajorD) A augmentedA *once
If you loved again I swear I'd love you right
B minorBm *once A* G*
I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
Bm* A* G*
So if the chain is on your door I understand
D MajorD
But this is me swallowing my pride
F# minorF#m
Standing in front of you saying
G+G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go
D MajorD A augmentedA
Back to December...
D MajorD
It turns out freedom ain't
(D MajorD)
Nothing but missing you
F# minorF#m
Wishing I'd realized what I had

When you were mine
D MajorD
I'd go back to December
A augmentedA G+G
Turn around and make it all right
D MajorD
I'd go back to December
A augmentedA G+G
Turn around and change my own mind
B minorBm *once A*
I go back to December all the time
D MajorD B minorBm G+G D MajorD B minorBm G+G *once
All the time
