C           G                           D           Am
A long December and there's reason to believe
                 C              G                  C
Maybe this year will be better than the last
     C        G                                  D                     Am
I can't remember the last thing  you said as you were leavin'
              C        G           C    
Now the days go by so fast

Chorus:
            G           C                   Am    
And it's one more day up in the canyons
            G             C                  Am 
And it's one more night in Hollywood
            G             C             Am                                 
If you think that I could be forgiven...         I wish you would

G  C  Am  D     G  C  Am

       C            G           D

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

And it's one more day up in the canyons
            G           C                 Am        
And it's one more night in Hollywood
          G           C                   Am   
If you think you might come to California.        ..I think you should

Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.
         C              G                   C 
And talked a little while about the year
                G                        D               Am
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,
                 C             G                   C                    
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her
        

                              
                             G                           D            Am
And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
                 C              G                  C           
Maybe this year will be better than the last
              G                   D                Am
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself
       C                      G                    C
To hold on to these moments as they pass
             G                   C          Am
And it's one more day up in the canyon
            G                 C         Am   
And it's one more night in Hollywood
       G                              C          Am             
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean...          I guess I should
