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

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

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

D 
These days I haven't been sleeping
Bm 
staying up playing back myself leaving
G 
When your birthday passed and I didn't
D 
ca
A 
ll
 
And I
D 
think about summer, all the beautiful times
Bm 
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
G 
realized I'd loved you in the
D 
fa
A 
ll

Bm 
And then the cold came,
A 
the dark days
 
when
D 
fear crept into my
G 
mind
 
You gave me
Bm 
all your love and all I
A 
gave you was good
G 
bye

 
So
D 
this is me swallowing my pride
 
standing in
Fm 
front of you saying I'm sorry for that
G 
night
 
and I go
D 
back to December
A 
all the time
 
It
D 
turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Fm 
wishing I'd realized what I had when
G 
you were mine
 
I'd go
D 
back to December,
A 
turn around and make change my own
G 
mind
 
I go
D 
back to December
A 
all the time

I miss your
Bm 
tan skin, your
G 
sweet smile, so
D 
good to me, so
A 
right
 
And how you
Bm 
held me in your
G 
arms that September
D 
night
 
The first time you
A 
ever saw me cry
Bm 
Maybe this is wishful thinking
G 
Probably mindless dreaming
D 
But if we loved again I swear I'd love you
A 
right
 
I'd go
Bm 
back in time and
A 
change it but I
G 
can't
 
So if the
Bm 
chain is on your
A 
door, I under
G 
stand

 
But
D 
this is me swallowing my pride
 
standing in
Fm 
front of you saying I'm sorry for that
G 
night
 
and I go
D 
back to December
A
