  You've been good, busier than ever

Is still burned in the back of your mind

♫ Verse 2:
F
  These days, I haven't been sleeping
 Cm
Stayin' up, playing back myself leavin'
F                                       F   B
When your birthday passed and I didn't call

Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times

I watched you laughin' from the passenger side

And realized I loved you in the fall

When fear crept into my mind

You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

I Go back to December, turn around and make it alright

             Cm                 F
I miss your tanned skin, your sweet smile
     F              B
So good to me, so right
             Cm              F                    F
And how you held me in your arms that September night
                    B           Cm
The first time you ever saw me cry

Maybe this is wishful thinkin'
F
  Probably mindless dreaming
    F                                        B
But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right
        Cm                B               F
I'd Go back in time and change it, but I can't
            Cm               B             F
So, if the chain is on your door, I understand

♫ Chorus:
      F
But this is me swallowing my pride
             G#m                                       F
Standin' in front of you, sayin', "I'm sorry for that night"
          F           B
And I Go back to December
     F
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missin' you
 G#m                                  F
Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
       F                 B                        F
I Go back to December, turn around and make it alright
      Cm                 B                        F
I Go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

I Go back to December all the time
