A long December and there's reason to believe

Maybe this year will be better than the last

I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were
Am
leavin'
G C
Now the days go by so fast
G C Am **
And it's one more day up in the canyons

If you think that I could be forgiven... I wish you would.

Verse 2-
C G D
The smell of hospitals in winter
Am C G
And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no

Am C G D
All at once you look across a crowded room
Am G C
To see the way that light attaches to a girl
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

C G D Am
Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.
C G C
And talked a little while about the year
Am C G D
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,
Am G C
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not
show her
C 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
Am C G D
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself
Am G C
To hold on to these moments as they pass
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
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean... I guess I should
Chorus-
G C Am C
Na, na-na, na. Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na.
G C Am
Na, na-na, na. Yeah...
