Back To December Chords

INTRO
    ….. x2

VERSE 1
  I’m so glad you made 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
  Your guard is up and I know why   

PRE-CHORUS
Cause the last time   you saw me
Is still burned in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

CHORUS
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 go back to December, turn around, and make it alright
I go back to December all the time

  … x2

VERSE 2
  These days I haven’t been sleeping
Staying up, playing back myself leaving
  When your birthday passed and I didn’t call  
Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
And   realized I loved you in the fall  

PRE-CHORUS
  And when 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

CHORUS
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 go back to December, turn around, and make it alright
I go back to December all the time

BRIDGE
I miss your tan skin and your sweet smile
So good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking
  Probably mindless dreaming
  But if we loved again, I swear I’d love you right

I’d go back in time and change it, but I can’t
So if the chain is on your door, I undestand

CHORUS (no comp)
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 –> comp in
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December, turn around, and make it alright
I go back to December, turn around, and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time

OUTRO
      All the time
