D              I'm so glad you made time to see me
G  How's life, tell me how's your family
Em                        DI haven't seen them in a while
DYou've been good, busier than ever
GWe small talk, work and the weather
Em                           DYour guard is up, and I know why
Em                    G                   DBecause the last time you saw me is still burned in the back of you mind
            Em           G                  D  You gave me roses, and I left them there to die
DSo this is me swallowing my pride
            G                                      EmStanding in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
         DAnd I go back to December all the time
   DIt turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
G                                    EmWishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
         DAnd I go back to December 
                        EmTurn around and make it alright
     D                GI go back to December all the time

D G 2x

DThese days, I haven't been sleeping
GStaying up playing back myself leaving
          Em                            DWhen your birthday passed, and I didn't call
      D  And I think about summer all the beautiful times
  GI watched you laughing from the passenger side and
Em                          DRealized I loved you in the fall
Em                      G                  DAnd then the cold came, and dark days when fear crept into my mind
            Em                      G            DYou gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye
   DSo this is me swallowing my pride 
            G                                      EmStanding in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
         DAnd I go back to December all the time
   D  It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you 
G                                    EmWishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
         DAnd I go back to December 
                          EmTurn around and change my own mind
     D                GI go back to December all the time

D G 2x
            Em             GI miss your tan skin, your sweet smile
   DSo good to me, so right
            Em              G                   DAnd how you held me in your arms that September night
                               Em***The first time you ever saw me cry 
                               Em*** Maybe this is wishful thinking 

Probably mindless dreaming
Em*         G*                           D*                 If we loved again, I swear I'd love you right
       Em*               G*                D*I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't
          Em*               G*            D*So if the chain is on your door, I understand
D (softly)       So this is me swallowing my pride 
            G                                   Em   Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
         D (normal speed)
And I go back to December
   D             It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you 
G                                    EmWishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine
DI go back to December 
                        EmTurn around and make it alright
     D                                          EmI go back to December turn around and change my own mind
     D                GI go back to December all the time
