D D   Bm Bm G G (2x)

D D
I'm so glad you made the time to see me
Bm Bm
How's life, tell me how's your family
G G D D A A
I haven't seen them in a while
D D
You've been good, busier than ever
Bm Bm
We small talk, work and the weather
G G D D A A
You're guard is up, and I know why

Bm Bm A A
Because the last time you saw me
D D G G
It's still burned in the back of your mind
Bm Bm A A G G
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

D D
So this is me swallowing my pride
F#m F#m
Standing in front of you saying
G G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go
D D A A
Back to December all the time
D D
It turns out freedom ain't
(D D)
Nothing but missing you
F#m F#m
Wishing I'd realized what I had
G G
When you were mine
D D
I'd go back to December,
A A G G
Turn around and make it all right
Bm Bm *once A A*
I go back to December all the time


D D Bm Bm G G (2x)

D D
These days I haven't been sleeping
Bm Bm
Stayin' up playing back myself leaving
G G D D A A
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
D D
Then I think about summer all the beautiful times
Bm Bm
I watch you laughing from the passenger side
G G D D A A
And realized I loved you in the fall

Bm Bm A A
And then the cold came the dark days
D D G G
When fear crept into my mind
Bm Bm
You gave me all your love and
A A G G
All I gave you was goodbye


D D
So this is me swallowing my pride
F#m F#m
Standing in front of you saying
G G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go
D D A A
Back to December all the time
D D
It turns out freedom ain't
(D D)
Nothing but missing you
F#m F#m
Wishing I'd realized what I had
G G
When you were mine
D D
I'd go back to December,
A A G G
Turn around and change my own mind
Bm Bm A A
I go back to December all the time


D D Bm Bm G G (2x)

Bm Bm G G
I miss your tan skin your sweet smile
D D A A
So good to me, so right
Bm Bm G G
And how you held me in your arms
D D
That September night
A A Bm Bm -stop
The first time you ever saw me cry
G G -stop
Maybe this is wishful thinking
D D
Probably mindless dreaming
(D D) A A *once
If you loved again I swear I'd love you right

Bm Bm *once A A* G G*
I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
Bm Bm* A A* G G*
So if the chain is on your door I understand

D D
But this is me swallowing my pride
F#m F#m
Standing in front of you saying
G G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go
D D A A
Back to December...
D D
It turns out freedom ain't
(D D)
Nothing but missing you
F#m F#m
Wishing I'd realized what I had
G G
When you were mine
D D
I'd go back to December
A A G G
Turn around and make it all right
Bm Bm
I'd go back to December
A A G G
Turn around and change my own mind
Bm Bm *once A A*
I go back to December all the time

D D Bm Bm G G D D Bm Bm G G *once
All the time
