 D                               Bm
I’m so glad you made time to see me
                                       G
How’s life? Tell me, how’s your family?
                            D   A
I haven’t seen them in a whi...ile
 D                                Bm
You’ve been good; busier than ever
                              G
Small talk, work and the weather
                              D A
Your guard is up and I know why
 Bm                 A
Because the last time you saw me
  D                             G
Still burns in the back of your mind
             Bm          A                  G
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

 D
So this is me swallowing my pride,
            Bm
Standing in front of you saying
                    G
I’m sorry for that night
          D                A
And I go back to December all the time,
  D
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missin’ you
 Bm                                            G
Wishing I’d realized what I had when you were mine
          D                 A
And I go back to December, turn around
             G
And make it all right
       D               A           Bm
I go back to December all the time

 D
These days I haven’t been sleepin?,
 Bm
Stayin’ up playing back myself leavin?,
 G
When your birthday passed
               D  A    D
And I didn’t ca...all, then I think about summer,
                      Bm
All the beautiful times,
                                              G
I watched you laughin’ from the passenger side
                                  D  A1
And realized I loved you in the fa....ll
Bm                      A
And then the cold came,
                     D                            G
With the dark days when the fear crept into my mind
              Bm
You gave me all your love
            A                G
And all I gave you was goodbye

 D
So this is me swallowing my pride,
           Bm
Standing in front of you saying
                      G
I’m sorry for that night
         D                 A
And I go back to December all the time,
     D
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missin’ you
 Bm                                             G
Wishing I’d realized what I had when you were mine
          D                 A
And I go back to December, turn around
               G
And change my own mind
      D                A           D
I go back to December all the time

G              D             A
I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile,
     D              A
So good to me, so right
               Bm            G
And how you held me in your arms
                   D
That September night;
                    A             Bm
The first time you ever saw me cry
                              G
Maybe this is wishful thinking
                        D
Probably mindless dreaming
                       A
If we loved again, I swear I’d love you right
    Bm                   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
But this is me swallowing my pride,
               Bm
Standing in front of you saying
                     G
I’m sorry for that night
         D               A
And I go back to December,
D                                           Bm
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missin’ you
                                         G
Wishing I’d realized what I had when you were mine
    D                   A
I go back to December, turn around
            G
And make it all right
    D                   A
I go back to December, turn around
               G
And change my own mind
   D                   A
