Taylor Swift – Back to December (Taylor’s Version)

|D     |Bm    2nG    |D     |Bm    2nG    |

|D                                    |Bm                                       |
   I'm so glad you made time to see me,  how's life? Tell me, how's your family?
|G                         |D    A   |
   I haven't seen them in a while
|D                                   |Bm                                |
   You've been good, busier than ever,  small talk, work and the weather
|G                            |D   A   |
   Your guard is up and I know why

|Bm                 A                         |D                        G   |
   Because the last time you saw me will still burn in the back of your mind
           |Bm          A                 |G   |
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

  |D                                          |F#m         |
So this is me swallowing my pride, standing in front of you
                         |G             |D                A           |
saying I'm sorry for that night and I go back to December all the time
  |D                                               |F#m                                 |
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you, wishing I'd realized what I had when
|G                  |D                 A                      |
 you were mine, I go back to December, turn around and make it
|G             |Bm               A           |
 allright, I go back to December all the time

|D     |Bm    2nG    |D     |Bm    2nG    |

|D                                    |Bm                                    |
   These days I haven't been sleeping, staying up playing back myself leaving
|G                                       |D   A   |
   When your birthday passed and I didn't call
     |D                                             |Bm                                     |
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times, I watched you laughing from the passenger
        |G                            |D   A   |
side and,  realized I loved you in the fall

|Bm              A                       |D                  G   |
   Then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind
           |Bm                      A       |G          |
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

  |D                                          |F#m         |
So this is me swallowing my pride, standing in front of you
                         |G             |D                A           |
saying I'm sorry for that night and I go back to December all the time
  |D                                               |F#m                                 |
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you, wishing I'd realized what I had when
|G                  |D                 A                        |
 you were mine, I go back to December, turn around and change my
|G             |Bm               A           |
 own mind, I go back to December all the time

|D     |Bm    2nG    |D     |Bm    2nG    |

           |Bm             G             |D              A    |
I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile so good to me, so right
           |Bm              G                  |D                         A          |
And how you held me in your arms that September night, the first time you ever saw me
|Bm                                 |G                           |
 cry, maybe this is wishful thinking,  probably mindless dreaming
|D                                       |A    |
   If we loved again I swear I'd love you right

      |Bm               A              |G               |Bm               A        |G       |
I'd go back in time and change it but I can't, so if the chain is on your door, I understand

|D                                          |F#m         |
 This is me swallowing my pride, standing in front of you
                         |G             |D            A   |
saying I'm sorry for that night and I go back to December
  |D                                               |F#m                                 |
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you, wishing I'd realized what I had when
|G                  |D                 A                      |
 you were mine, I go back to December, turn around and make it
|G            |Bm                A                        |
 alright, I go back to December, turn around and change my
|G             |Bm               A           |
 own mind, I go back to December all the time

|D     |Bm    2nG        |D     |Bm    2nG    |
                 All the time
