Bb       F                  C            Gm
A long December and there's reason to believe
      Bb                F               Bb
Maybe this year will be better than the last
  Gm      Bb         F                   C
I can't remember the last thing that you said
            Gm
As you were leavin'
        F             Bb
Now the days go by so fast

         F               Bb         Gm    Bb
And it's one more day up in the canyons
         F                 Bb       Gm    Bb
And it's one more night in Hollywood
       F                  Bb        Gm                  F
If you think that I could be forgiven...I wish you would
  Bb   Gm  Bb ....
Nanananananananana..

Bb            F             C
The smell of hospitals in winter
          Gm              Bb             F               Bb
And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no pearls
Gm       Bb            F               C
All at once you look across a crowded room
           Gm                F           Bb
To see the way that light attaches to a girl

         F               Bb         Gm    Bb
And it's one more day up in the canyons
         F                 Bb       Gm    Bb
And it's one more night in Hollywood
       F                  Bb        Gm                  F
If you think you might come to California...I think you should

  Bb   Gm  Bb ....
Nanananananananana..

Bb               F                      C              Gm
Drove up to the Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.              
      Bb             F              Bb
And talked a little while about the year

Gm       Bb                    F               C
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower
           Gm                              Bb      
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her

                  Bb     F                  C          Gm
And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
        Bb                F               Bb
Maybe this year will be better than the last
    Gm      Bb             F              C
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself
    Bb                F              Bb
To hold on to these moments as they pass

              F             Bb          Gm
And it's been one more day up in the canyon
          F                Bb        Gm
And it's one more night in Hollywood
        F                     Bb        Gm
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean...I guess I should
