C  F  Dm  F
C  F  Dm  F


[Verse]
(F)      C                  G           Dm
A long December and there's reason to believe
      F                 C               F
Maybe this year will be better than the last
 Dm             F       C                   G
   I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were
Dm
leavin'
        C             F~
Now the days go by so fast


[Pre-chorus]
         C               F         Dm
And it's one more day up in the canyons
         C              F          Dm
And it's one more night in Hollywood
       C                  F     Dm        \
If you think that I could be forgiven... I wish you would.


[Chorus]
C            F    Dm            F
   Na, na-na, na. Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na.
C            F    Dm
   Na, na-na, na. Yeah...


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


[Pre-chorus]
         C               F         Dm
And it's one more day up in the canyons
         C                 F       Dm
And it's one more night in Hollywood
       C               F           Dm         \
If you think you might come to California... I think you should


[Chorus]
C            F    Dm            F
   Na, na-na, na. Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na.
C            F    Dm
   Na, na-na, na. Yeah...


[Solo]
C   F   Dm   F
C   F   Dm


[Verse]
 F             C              G              Dm
   Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two A.M.
    F               C               F    Dm
And talked a little while about the year
Dm             F                C              G
   I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,
           Dm            C               F
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not
show her
                F    C                    G           Dm
And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
      F                 C               F
Maybe this year will be better than the last
          F               C               G
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself
   Dm               C               F~
To hold on to these moments as they pass


[Pre-chorus]
         C               F         Dm
And it's one more day up in the canyons
         C              F          Dm
And it's one more night in Hollywood
     C                       F            Dm~
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean... I guess I should


[Chorus 4x]
C            F    Dm            F
   Na, na-na, na. Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na.
C            F    Dm
   Na, na-na, na. Yeah...
