Intro
[D] [G] [Em] [G]
[D] [G] [Em] [Em]
[G] A long De- [D] cember and there's [A] reason to be- [Em] lieve
Maybe [G] this year will be [D] better than the [G] last [G]
I [Em] can't re- [G] member the [D] last thing that you [A] said
as you were [Em] leavin'
Now the [D] days go by so [G] fast [G]
Chorus
And it's [D] one more day up [G] in the can- [Em] yons [G]
And it's [D] one more night in [G] Hollywood [Em] [Em]
If you [D] think that I could [G] be forgiven [Em] [Em↓↓]
...I wish you [D] would... na na [G] Naa na
[Em] Naa na naa na [G] naa na naa na- a [D] na
...Na na [G] naa na [Em] yeah... [Em]
[G] The smell of [D] hospitals in [A] winter
And the [Em] feeling that it's [G] all a lot of [D] oysters, but no [G] pearls [G]
[Em] All at [G] once you look a- [D] cross a crowded [A] room
To see the [Em] way that light atta- [D] ches to a [G] girl
Chorus
And it's [D] one more day up [G] in the can- [Em] yons [Em]
And it's [D] one more night in [G] Hollywood [Em] [Em]
If you think that [D] you might come to [G] Californ- [Em] ia [Em↓↓]
...I think you [D] should... na na [G] Naa na
[Em] Naa na naa na [G] naa na naa na- a [D] na
...Na na [G] naa na [Em] yeah... [Em]
[G] Drove up to the [D] Hillside Manor [A] sometime after two [Em] a.m.
And [G] talked a little [D] while about the [G] year
[Em] I guess the [G] winter makes you [D] laugh a little [A] slower
Makes you [Em] talk a little [D] lower about
the [G] things you could not [G] show her
Chorus
And it's [D] one more day up [G] in the can- [Em] yons [Em]
And it's [D] one more night in [G] Hollywood [Em] [Em]
It's been so long [D] since I've [G] seen the o- [Em] cean [Em↓]
...I guess I [D] should... Na na [G] Naa na
[Em] Naa na naa na [G] naa na naa na- a [D] na
...Na na [G] naa na [Em] yeah... [Em]
