December- Sara Bareilles
I love this song so much, and like playing it, and the other tab is pretty good, but the formatting is just
awful. I fixed it because I might be a bit OCD.
(Catch the sarcasm?? :D)
Also, this version includes the lyrics and tab for the second verse. Sara B's lyrics might be my favorite
thing ever. Anyways, enjoy!
NO CAPO
Verse:
F Am C F
The afternoon has settled long and heavy on my shoulders
Dm G F C
The winter’s light feels different on my skin
Dm Dm/C Am Am/G
It doesn't seem to strike as far below the surface so
D/F# [ F C ] x3
I have to conclude that [shadow won't let it in ]
CHORUS:
Dm
December…
G
You've always been a problem child
C Am
December... You run me down right restless and wild
Dm G
And I remember when you used to be mine
C/G Am7 Em7 F
December-whoooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Verse 2:
F Am C F
The leaves are all still changing, the weather here is mild and vacant
Dm G F C
Winter's blooming on Los Angeles
Dm Dm/C Am Am/G
The artificial cold was more than I was hoping for
D/F# [ F C ] x3
But not enough to consume [the darkened state I'm in ]
Chorus:
Dm
December…
G
You've always been a problem child
C Am
December... You run me down right restless and wild
Dm G
And I remember when you used to be mine
C/G Am7 Em7 F
December-whoooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Bridge:
Am G C Em F
Distill a whole year down into a day
Am G C Em F
Act like we all start over with a pristine slate
Am G C Em Dm
But to get yourself a new life you've got to give the other one away
Dm G
And I'm starting to believe in the power of a name
Dm G
Cause it can't be a mistake if I just call it change
Repeat Chorus for instrumental part.
I apologize for any wonky spacing...
