[Verse]
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

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

[Verse 2]
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

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

[Verse 3]
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
Makes you talk a little lower about
 Bb
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]
            F                          Bb            Gm Bb
And it's one more day up in the canyon
          F                              Bb       Gm
And it's one more night in Hollywood
D                                G                    Em 
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean
                   D
I guess I should
