[Cm] [Ab] I'm
[Eb] [Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] so glad you made time [Cm] to see me
How's life?
Tell me, how's [Ab] your family?
I haven't seen them [Cm] in a [Bb] while
[Eb] You've been good, busier than [Cm] ever
You small talk, the work and [Ab] the weather
Your guard is up and [Cm] I know why
[Bb]
[Cm] Because the last [Bb] time you saw [Eb] me
You still burned in the [Ab] back of your mind
[Cm] You gave me roses and I left them [Ab] there to die
[Eb] So dismiss me, swallow in my pride
[Gm] Stand it if, but are you the same?
I'm sorry [Ab] for the night
And [Eb] I go back to December all the time
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but [Gm] missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I [Ab] had when you were mine
[Eb] I go back to [Bb] December, turn around and [Ab] make it alright
I [Cm] go back to [Bb] December all the [Eb] time
[Cm] No, [Ab]
[Eb] all the time
[Cm] [Ab] These [Eb] days I haven't been [Cm] sleeping
Staying up, playing back, myself [Ab] leaving
When your birthday passed and I [Cm] didn't call
[Bb]
[Eb] Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
[Cm] I watched you laughing from the passenger [Ab] side
I realized I loved you [Bb] in the fall
[Cm] And then the cold came, the dark [Eb] days
When fear crept [Ab] into my mind
[Cm] You gave me all your love and all I gave you [Ab] was goodbye
[Eb] So dismiss me, swallow in my pride
[Gm] Stand it if, but are you the same?
I'm sorry [Ab] for the night
And [Eb] I go back to [Bb] December all the [Eb] time
Turns out freedom ain't nothing but [Gm] missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I [Ab] had when you were mine
And [Eb] I go back to [Bb] December, turn around and [Ab] change my own mind
[Cm] I go back to [Bb] December all the [Eb] time
[Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] All the time
I [Cm] [Ab]
[Cm] miss your tan skin, [Ab] your sweet [Eb] smile, so good to me
[Bb] So I, [Cm] how you held me in [Ab] your arms that [Eb] September night
First [Bb] time you ever saw [Cm] me cry
Maybe this is wishful [Ab] thinking
Probably mindless [Eb] dreaming
If we loved again, I swear I'd [Bb] love you right
I'd go back in time to change it, [Ab] but I can't
[Cm] So if the chain is on [Bb] your door, I [Ab] understand
[Eb] Dismiss me, swallow in my pride
[Gm] Stand it if, but are you the same?
I'm sorry for [Eb] the night
I go back to [Bb] December
[Eb] Turns out freedom ain't nothing but [Gm] missing you
Wishing I'd realized what I [Ab] had when you were mine
