Counting CrowsA Long December   (Album: Recovering the Satellites (1996))

Intro:       [D,  G,  Em,  G] x2

A long December and there’s reason to believe              [G,  D,  A,  Em]

Maybe this year will be better than the last                      [G ,  D,  G,  G]

I can’t remember the last thing that you said                   [Em,  G,  D,  A]

as you were leavin’  Now the days go by so fast             [Em,  D,  G,  G]

C:    [D,  G,  Em,  G]

        And it’s one more day up in the canyons

        And it’s one more night in Hollywood

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

The smell of hospitals in winter                                               [G,  D,  A,  Em]

And the feeling that it’s all a lot of oysters, but no pearls         [G ,  D,  G,  G]

All at once you look across a crowded room                           [Em,  G,  D,  A]

To see the way that light attaches to a girl                              [Em,  D,  G,  G]

And it’s one more day up in the canyons

And it’s one more night in Hollywood

If you think you might come to California…I think you should…nanana..

[solo]

Drove up to the Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m. [G,  D,  A,  Em]

And talked a little while about the year                            [G ,  D,  G,  G]

I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower           [Em,  G,  D,  A]

Makes you talk a little lower about                                   [Em,  D,  G,  G]

        the things you could not show her

And it’s been a long December & there’s reason to believe    [G,  D,  A,  Em]

Maybe this year will be better than the last                              [G ,  D,  G,  G]

I can’t remember all the times I tried to tell myself                   [Em,  G,  D,  A]

To hold on to these moments as they pass                             [Em,  D,  G,  G]

And it’s been one more day up in the canyon

And it’s one more night in Hollywood

It’s been so long since I’ve seen the ocean…I guess I should…nanana..
