Back to December Taylor Swift
No capo! Pretty song, and I think it's fairly close! Try the strumming pattern DDDUUDDDU
Key: *One downward strum
***Three quick downward strums
D G 2x
[D]I'm so glad you made time to see me
[G]How's life, tell me how's your family
[Em]I haven't seen them in a w[D]hile
[D]You've been good, busier than ever
[G]We small talk, work and the weather
[Em]Your guard is up, and I know [D]why
[Em]Because the last time [G]you saw me is still [D]burned in the back of you mind
You gave me [Em]roses, and I [G]left them there to [D]die
[D]So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in [G]front of you saying I'm sorry for that [Em]night
And I go [D]back to December all the time
It [D]turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[G]Wishing I'd realized what I had when [Em]you were mine
And I go [D]back to December
Turn around and make it [Em]alright
I go [D]back to December [G]all the time
D G 2x
[D]These days, I haven't been sleeping
[G]Staying up playing back myself leaving
When your [Em]birthday passed, and I didn't [D]call
And I [D]think about summer all the beautiful times
I [G]watched you laughing from the passenger side and
[Em]Realized I loved you in the [D]fall
[Em]And then the cold came, [G]and dark days when [D]fear crept into my mind
You gave me [Em]all your love and all I [G]gave you was [D]goodbye
So [D]this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in [G]front of you saying I'm sorry for that [Em]night
And I go [D]back to December all the time
It [D]turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[G]Wishing I'd realized what I had when [Em]you were mine
And I go [D]back to December
Turn around and change my [Em]own mind
I go [D]back to December [G]all the time
D G 2x
I miss your [Em]tan skin, your [G]sweet smile
So [D]good to me, so right
And how you [Em]held me in your [G]arms that September [D]night
Em***
The first time you ever saw me cry
Em***
Maybe this is wishful thinking
Probably mindless dreaming
Em* G* D*
If we loved again, I swear I'd love you right
Em* G* D*
I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't
Em* G* D*
So if the chain is on your door, I understand
D (softly)
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standing in [G]front of you saying I'm sorry for th[Em]at night
D (normal speed)
And I go back to December
It [D]turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
[G]Wishing I'd realized what I had when [Em]you were mine
[D]I go back to December
Turn around and make it [Em]alright
I go [D]back to December turn around and change my [Em]own mind
I go [D]back to December [G]all the time
[D] [G]
All the time
[D] [G]
