[Bm] [G]
[D] I'm so glad you made time to see [Bm] me.
How's life?
Tell me, how's your [G] family?
I haven't seen them [D] in a while.
[A]
[D] You've been good, busier than [Bm] ever.
We small talk, work in the [G] weather.
Your guard is up and [D] I know why.
[A]
[Bm] Because the last time I saw you, I thought you were gone.
[A] You saw me [D] still burning in the back [G] of your mind
You [Bm] gave me roses [A] and I left them [G] there to die
[D] So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing [F#m] in front of you saying I'm sorry for [G] that now
And I [D] go back to [A] December on the top
[D] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but a listen
You [F#m] wish you'd not realized what I had when [G] you were mine
I [D] go back to [A] December, turn around and make [G] it all right
I [Bm] go back to [A] December on the [D] top
[Bm] [G]
[D]
These [Bm] [G]
[D] days I haven't been [Bm] sleeping
Staying up playing back my sublime
[G] And when your birthday passed and I [D] didn't call
[A]
[D] Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I [Bm] watched you laughing from the passenger [G] side
And realized I love you in [D] your phone
[A]
[Bm] And in the [A] cold game, the dark [D] days
One feel crept into [G] my mind
You [Bm] gave me all your love and [A] all I gave you [G] was goodbye
[D] So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing [F#m] in front of you saying I'm sorry for that [G] now
And I [D] go back to December [A] on the top
[D] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but a listen
[F#m] You wish you'd not realized what I had [G] when you were mine
I [D] go back to December, [A]
turn around and change [G] my own mind
I [Bm] go back to [A] December on the [D] top
[Bm] [G]
[D]
[Bm] [G]
I miss [Bm] your tan skin and [G] your sweet smile
[D] So good to be [A] so right
And now [Bm] you held me in [G] your arms that September [D] night
The first time [A] you ever saw [Bm] me cry
Maybe this is wishful [G] thinking
Probably mindless [D] dreaming
But if we loved again, I swear I'd love [A] you right
[Bm] I go back in time [A] and change it, but [G] I can't
So [Bm] if the chain is on [A] your door, I [G] understand
But [D] this is me swallowing my pride
Standing [F#m] in front of you saying I'm sorry for [G] that now
And I [D] go back to [A]
December
[D] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but a listen
[F#m] You wish you'd not realized what I had [G] when you were mine
I [D] go back to December, [A] turn around and make [G] it all alright
I [Bm] go back to December, [A]
turn around and change [G] my own mind
I [Bm] go back to [A] December on the [D] top
