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!!
