Back To December - Taylor Swift chords

Key: C Singer/Band: Taylor Swift


Tone D: Capo 2
1. [C] I'm so glad you made time to see me.
[Am] How's life? Tell me how's your family?
[F] I haven't seen them in a [C] while [G]
[C] You've been good, busier than ever,
[Am] We small talk, work and the weather,
[F] Your guard is up and I know [C] why [G]
[Am] Because the last time [G] you saw me
Is still [C] burned in the back of your [F] mind.
You gave me [Am] roses and I [G] left them there to [F] die
Chorus: So [C] this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in [Em] front of you saying "I'm sorry for that [F] night"
And I go [C] back to December [G] all the time.
It [C] turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[Em] Wishing I'd realized what I had when [F] you were mine
I'd go [C] back to December, [G] turn around and make it all [F] right
I go [Am] back to December [G] all the time
2. [C] These days I haven't been sleeping,
[Am] Staying up, playing back myself leavin'.
[F] When your birthday passed and I didn't [C] call [G]
And I [C] think about summer, all the beautiful times,
[Am] I watched you laughing from the passenger side.
[F] Realized that I loved you in the [C] fall [G]
[Am] And then the cold came, [G] the dark days
When [C] fear crept into my [F] mind
You gave me [Am] all your love and all I [G] gave you was [F] "Goodbye"
Chorus: So [C] this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in [Em] front of you saying "I'm sorry for that [F] night"
And I go [C] back to December [G] all the time.
It [C] turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[Em] Wishing I'd realized what I had when [F] you were mine
I'd go [C] back to December, [G] turn around and change my own [F] mind
I go [Am] back to December [G] all the time
* I miss your [Am] tanned skin, your [F] sweet smile, so [C] good to me, so [G] right
And how you [Am] held me in your [F] arms that September [C] night
The first time you [G] ever saw me [Am] cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking [F] probably mindless dreaming [C]
But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you [G] right
I'd go [Am] back in time and [G] change it but I [F] can't.
So if the [Am] chain is on your [G] door I unders-[F] tand.
Chorus: But [C] this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in [Em] front of you saying "I'm sorry for that [F] night"
And I go [C] back to December [G]
It [C] turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you,
[Em] Wishing I'd realized what I had when [F] you were mine.
I'd go [C] back to December, [G] turn around and make it all [F] right.
I'd go [Am] back to December, [G] turn around and change my [F] own mind
* I go [Am] back to December [G] all the time.
[C] [Am] [F] All the [C] time [Am] [F]
