And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
D    D  F#   F# F#  G F#    D  D    D E E       E 


I watched you laughing from the passenger side and

Realised I loved you in the fall
D G G   F#  D     B    D  E   F# E F# E C#

And then the cold came
B        B   B    F#    E 


The dark days when fear crept into my mind

You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye
B      B     B  F#  G    F#   F# F# E  C#  C#  C#    B D




Chorus:

So this is me swallowing my pride

The first time you ever saw me cry

But if we loved again I swear I'd love you right

So if the chain is on your door, I understand

Chorus:

So this is me swallowing my pride

Standing in front of you, saying I'm sorry for that night

And I go back to December all the time

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
