[Intro 1]
[D][G][Em][G]
[D][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[G]A long Decem[D]ber
and there's [A]reason to be[Em]lieve
Maybe [G]this year will be
[D]better than the las[G]t
[Em]I can't rememb[G]er the last [D]thing
that you [A]said as you were [Em]leavin'
Now the [D]days go by [G]so fast

[Chorus 1]
And it's [D]one more day
up [G]in the [Em]canyons
And it's [D]one more night in [G]Hollywood[Em]
If you [D]think that I could [G]be [Em]forgiven
I wish you [D]would
Naa- na [G]naa- na, [Em]naa- na naa- na,
[G]naa- na, naa- na- [D]na
Naa- na [G]naa- na, [Em]yeah

[Verse 2]
[G]The smell of hos[D]pitals in win[A]ter
And the [Em]feeling that it's [G]all a lot of [D]oysters,
but [G]no [Em]pearls
All at [G]once you look a[D]cross
a crowded [A]room
To see the [Em]way that light [D]attaches
to a [G]girl

[Chorus 2]
And it's [D]one more day
up [G]in the [Em]canyons
And it's [D]one more night in [G]Hollywood[Em]
If you think [D]you might come
to [G]California[Em]
I think you [D]should
Naa- na [G]naa- na, [Em]naa- na naa- na,
[G]naa- na naa- naa- [D]naa
Naa- na [G]naa- naa, [Em]yeah

[Solo 1]
[D][G][Em][G]
[D][G][Em]

[Verse 3]
[G]Drove up to Hil[D]lside Manor
[A]sometime after two [Em]a.m.
And [G]talked a little [D]while about the [G]year
[Em]I guess the wint[G]er makes you
[D]laugh a little [A]slower,
Makes you [Em]talk a little [D]lower
about the [G]things you could not show her

[Verse 4]
And it's been [G]a long Dec[D]ember
and there's [A]reason to be[Em]lieve
Maybe [G]this year will be
[D]better than the las[G]t
[Em]I can't rememb[G]er all
the [D]times I tried to [A]tell myself
To hold [Em]on to these mo[D]ments
as [G]they pass

[Chorus 3]
And it's [D]one more day
up [G]in the [Em]canyons
And it's [D]one more night in [G]Hollywood[Em]
It's been [D]so long
since I've [G]seen the [Em]ocean
I guess I [D]should
Naa- na [G]naa- na, [Em]naa- na naa- na,
[G]naa- na naa- naa- [D]na
Naa- na [G]naa- naa, [Em]yeah
[D]Naa- na naa[G]- na, naa[Em]- na naa- na,

Yeah, yeah, yeah
