Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I'm so glad you made the time to see me

How's life, tell me how's your family

I haven't seen them in a while

You've been good, busier than ever

We small talk, work and the weather

You're guard is up, and I know why

Because the last time you saw me

It's still burned in the back of your mind

You gave me roses and I left them there to die

So this is me swallowing my pride

Standing in front of you saying

"I'm sorry for that night" and I go

Back to December all the time

It turns out freedom ain't

Nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had

When you were mine

I'd go back to December,

Turn around and make it all right

*once *

I go back to December all the time

These days I haven't been sleeping

Stayin' up playing back myself leaving

When your birthday passed and I didn't call

Then I think about summer all the beautiful times

I watch you laughing from the passenger side

And realized I loved you in the fall

And then the cold came the dark days

When fear crept into my mind

You gave me all your love and

All I gave you was goodbye

So this is me swallowing my pride

Standing in front of you saying

"I'm sorry for that night" and I go

Back to December all the time

It turns out freedom ain't

Nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had

When you were mine

I'd go back to December,

Turn around and change my own mind

I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin your sweet smile

So good to me, so right

And how you held me in your arms

That September night

-stop

The first time you ever saw me cry

-stop

Maybe this is wishful thinking

Probably mindless dreaming

*once

If you loved again I swear I'd love you right

*once * *

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't

So if the chain is on your door I understand

But this is me swallowing my pride

Standing in front of you saying

"I'm sorry for that night" and I go

Back to December...

It turns out freedom ain't

Nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had

When you were mine

I'd go back to December

Turn around and make it all right

I'd go back to December

Turn around and change my own mind

*once *

I go back to December all the time

*once

All the time

Have fun!!
