Taylor Swift - Back To December Chords & Tabs

  10-12-10
Hi!  So here's Taylor's next hit!  This song is really good  
& seriously, I wouldn't expect anything less from her:) I
had 2 different versions and couldn't decided but in the 
end the this one won out. Plus, not everyone has a capo.
Have fun and please **RATE**  Thanks :)

*This is how I play the G [3 x 0 0 3 3]*

Standard Tuning
No Capo


D   Bm G (2x)

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

Bm                    A
Because the last time you saw me
           D                          G
It's still burned in the back of your mind 
            Bm          A                  G    
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

   D
So this is me swallowing my pride 
            A
Standing in front of you saying 
                    G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go 
D                A              
Back to December all the time
   D
It turns out freedom ain't
(D)
Nothing but missing you
A      
Wishing I'd realized what I had 
     G
When you were mine 
       D
I'd go back to December, 
A                           G 
Turn around and make it all right
     Bm *once         A*           
I go back to December all the time


D   Bm G (2x)

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

Bm                     A
And then the cold came the dark days
     D                  G
When fear crept into my mind
            Bm                   
You gave me all your love and
      A           G
All I gave you was goodbye


   D
So this is me swallowing my pride 
            A
Standing in front of you saying 
                    G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go 
D                A             
Back to December all the time
   D
It turns out freedom ain't
(D)
Nothing but missing you
A      
Wishing I'd realized what I had 
     G
When you were mine 
       D
I'd go back to December, 
A                         G 
Turn around and change my own mind
     Bm               A            
I go back to December all the time


D  Bm G (2x)
 
            Bm            G 
I miss your tan skin your sweet smile
   D              A
So good to me, so right
            Bm              G
And how you held me in your arms
               D
That September night
                   A           Bm -stop  
The first time you ever saw me cry
                              G -stop
Maybe this is wishful thinking
                          D
Probably mindless dreaming
(D)                                     A *once
If you loved again I swear I'd love you right

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

    D
But this is me swallowing my pride 
            A                              
Standing in front of you saying 
                    G
"I'm sorry for that night" and I go 
D              A
Back to December...
   D  
It turns out freedom ain't
(D)            
Nothing but missing you
A                              
Wishing I'd realized what I had 
     G  
When you were mine 
       D  
I'd go back to December 
A                           G                           
Turn around and make it all right
       D         
I'd go back to December
A                         G
Turn around and change my own mind
     D *once          A*        
I go back to December all the time

D  Bm G         D  Bm G *once
        All the time



Have fun!!
