Back To December Chords | Taylor Swift

Transpose up

─♡─

Capo on 2nd Fret
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

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
