[Verse 1]
December [D]is the cruelest [Dsus4]month
[D]But this time for once my
cheeks are warm
After long [C]years in [Am]the monkey-house
I [C]I a[Am]m ready[C] for the
[D]storm[Dsus4][D]
Let them [C]throw [Am]all their cannonballs
[C]Let[Dsus4] all their strong[C]mencome[Am]
I'm ready [D]to go anywhere
Through venom, sick and [Am]scum!
[Dsus4]

[Verse 2]
December isn't [D]always cold
But this year she's mine
and I know why
Some[Am]where a flower has
to [Dsus4]grow[Am]
For every flower that [D]dies
[Dsus4]I'm stric[Am]ken with fever
But my heart is [C]strong as [Am]steel
I'm ready [D]to go anywhere!
I can believe, I [Dsus4]can feel![D]

[Verse 3]
December [D]is a trusted [G]friend[D]
I always recognize her face
It's [C]a plague of [Am]fool blown aside
Forever by [D]her soft [Am]and silent grace[D]
She is reckless [C]as a May[Am]day[Dsus4]
[D]Gentle as a [Dsus4]stone
[D]And ready to go [Dsus4]anywhere[D]

[Interlude 3]
To carry me back home!

[Verse 4]
December [D]fell deep in the bleak
Mid-winter time time when
Jesus Christ
[Am]Howled a baby savior's howl
[D]A primal t[Am]ruth a[C]s pure[Am] as i[D]ce
And though we [Am]crucified
him on [D]a cross[Am]
And dragged his name from payer to curse
He was [D]able to go anywhere
He was almost one [Am]of u[Dsus4]s![D][Am]
