[Verse 1]
  C                                     
December was nice before I’d ever had a lover 
G/B   Am                         F
......Now I just cry at people caring for each other
 C                         
Seems like the nights are falling darker than ever
G/B   Am                            F           
....Thought I would like it til it felt like forever
          C 
And it’s cold out
             G/B
Was it this cold out
            Am                          F
When I was little and I liked when it snowed out
C                                 
I can’t remember but I still feel your sweater
G/B   Am                           F 
Overheating in the summer now I’m cold in December

[Verse 2]
  C                                         
December was fine before I ever learned to travel
G/B   Am                          F
......Now I’m in line marking my baggage as fragile
 C                                       
They tell me home is where my heart is beating steady
G/B    Am                           F 
..But lately it’s split between a couple different cities
       C 
And I miss you
         G/B
Why Do I miss you
            Am                               F 
On a plane miles and miles away, I’m still with you
 C                                            
We’re touching down but I still feel you at my center
G/B       Am                           F             
You were home back in August now I’m alone in December

[Bridge]
          Am                            
And so I have to change with the seasons
G/B             C              
Let the autumn fall away with you leaving
           F 
I can disappear in the cold
       G          Am               G/B   C            
Like every other year, hide in holiday cheer
        Am           
And at night I’ll face all my demons
 G/B                C                           
Summer’s when they hibernate, now I’m freezing
                F  
What I wouldn’t do
                     G           Am    
To be a kid, be at home, be with you
G/B   C                 
........What I wouldn’t do

[Interlude]

[Outro]
   C               
December was mine when I could tolerate the weather
G/B    Am                       F
..When it made me smile to see anybody together
C 
I can still hope that January will be better
G/B      Am                          F
Used to call it getting older now I call it December
