These days I haven't been sleeping

Capo 2 Am
Staying up, playing back myself leaving

C G
call
[Verse 1]
C
C Then I think about summer, all the
I'm so glad you made time to see me beautiful times
Am Am
How's life, tell me, how's your family I watched you laughing from the passenger
F C G side
I haven't seen them in a while F C G
And realized I loved you in the fall
C
You've been good, busier than ever
Am [Pre-Chorus]
We small talk, work and the weather Am G
F C G And when the cold came,the dark days
Your guard is up and I know why C F
When fear crept into my mind
Am
[Pre-Chorus] You gave me all your love
Am G G F
Cause the last time, you saw me and all I gave you was goodbye
C F
Is still burned in the back of your mind
Am G [Chorus]
You gave me roses and I left them there to C
F So this is me swallowing my pride,
die Em
standing in front of you
F
[Chorus] Saying I'm sorry for that night
C C G
So this is me swallowing my pride, And I go back to December all the time
Em C
standing in front of you It turns out freedom ain't nothing but
F missing you
Saying I'm sorry for that night Em
C G Wishing that I'd realized what I had when
And I go back to December all the time F
you were mine
C C G
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but I go back to December, turn around and
missing you F
