"A Long December" by the Counting Crows

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

And it's [G]one more day up [C]in the can[Am]yons
And it's [G]one more night [C]in Hollywood[Am]
If you [G]think that I could [C]be for[Am]given...I wish you would
[Chorus:  G C Am D   G C Am]

[C]The smell of [G]hospitals in [D]winter
And the [Am]feeling that it's [C]all a lot of [G]oysters, but no [C]pearls
All at [G]once you look [D]across a crowded [Am]room
To see the [C]way that light [G]attaches to a [C]girl
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/counting_crows/a_long_december_crd_ver_7.html ]
And it's [G]one more day up [C]in the can[Am]yons
And it's [G]one more night [C]in Hollywood[Am]
If you [G]think you might [C]come to Cali[Am]fornia...I think you should
[Chorus]

[C]Drove up to [G]Hillside Manor [D]sometime after [Am]two a.m.
And [C]talked a little [G]while about the [C]year
I guess the [G]winter makes you [D]laugh a little [Am]slower,
Makes you [C]talk a little [G]lower about the [C]things you could not show her

And it's been a long [G]December and there's [D]reason to [Am]believe
Maybe [C]this year will be [G]better than the [C]last
I can't [G]remember all the [D]times I tried to [Am]tell my myself
To [C]hold on to these [G]moments as they [C]pass

And it's [G]one more day up [C]in the can[Am]yons
And it's [G]one more night [C]in Hollywood[Am]
It's [G]been so long since I've [C]seen the ocean[Am]...I guess I should
[Chorus]
