Gm

[Verse 1]
---------------------
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 as you were leaving
Gm            F        Bb
  Now the days go by so  fast

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
           F             Bb
And it's one more day up in the canyons
Gm            F                 Bb
  And it's one more night in Hollywood
Gm            F               Bb
  If you think that I could be  forgiven
Gm                F Bb Gm Bb F Bb
  I wish you would
Gm

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Bb                F               C           Gm
  The smell of hospitals in winter And the fee
                  Bb            F           Bb
ling 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

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
           F             Bb
And it's one more day up in the canyons
Gm            F                 Bb
  And it's one more night in Hollywood
Gm                F                Bb
  If you think you might come to California
Gm                  F Bb Gm Bb F Bb
  I think you should
Gm

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Bb                F              C               Gm
  Drove up to 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
Makes you talk  a little lower
                Bb
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

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
           F             Bb
And it's one more day up in the canyons
Gm            F                 Bb
  And it's one more night in Hollywood
Gm            F                    Bb         Gm
  It's been so long since I've seen  the ocean
I guess I should
