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 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 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 F 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
Gm 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
F Bb Gm
