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

Bb      F                                 C           Gm

I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself
     F                                      Bb
To hold on to these moments as they pass *(fill 4)

             F                        Bb                Gm
And it's one more day up in the canyon *(fill 5, played w/ a slide)
            F                        Bb            Gm
And it's one more night in Hollywood
          F                        Bb                     Gm
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean... I guess I should
