[Intro] A F#m D E [Verse 1]
A                         F#m
The moon is bright tonight

D                 E                          A
I see it shining down on the surface of the reservoir

             F#m
I don't know where you are

         D                E                    A
But the last time I was here, you were by my side
[Pre-Chorus 1]
         C#m
On that night

        D                      E
It was December, don't you remember?

                A           C#m
You were by my side on that night

       D              E
When I told you I was ready

            F#m
Ready to go on

       A                    C#m
But I don't know where to go

           D               F#m
You can't help me find my way

      A              C#m
I am better off without you

         D                  A
But it won't be quite the same
[Chorus 1]
      C#m   D      E
Here by my side

              A     C#m    D      E
Now you're not here by my side
[Instrumental] A F#m D E [Verse 2]
A                         F#m
Our hopes were high that night

       D               E                         A
Your eyes were a time machine, crystalline and golden

               F#m
When you said "hold it,"

      D                        E                   A
Then something changed, how I wish you were by my side
[Pre-Chorus 2]
        C#m
On that night

           D                  E
It was December, don't you remember?

                 A             C#m
You were by my side on that night

         D              E
When I told you I was ready

             F#m
Ready to go on

       A                   C#m
But I don't know where to go

            E               F#m
You can't help me find my way

      A                  C#m
I am better off without you

         D                 A
But it won't be quite the same
[Chorus 2]
      C#m    D       E
Here by my side

               A     C#m   D       E
Now you're not here by my side
[Bridge]
    F#m
Well, let me know

A
Is that alright?

            D
You could stay just one more hour

          A             E
We could watch the sun rise

    F#m               A
And even if I never make you change your mind

                  D              E
At least you were kind, you were kind

                    A
When you were by my side
[Pre-Chorus 3]
        C#m
On that night

        D                      E
It was December, don't you remember?

                A             C#m
You were by my side on that night

         D             E
When I told you I was ready

             F#m
Ready to go on

       A                  C#m
But I don't know where to go

           D                F#m
You can't help me find my way

       A                C#m
I am better off without you

         D                   A
But it won't be quite the same
[Chorus 3]
     C#m    D     E
Here by my side

              A     C#m   D       E
Now you're not here by my side

       A           D
By my side on that night

       A           D
By my side on that night

       A           E             A
I remember on that cold December night
