Counting Crows es una banda de rock de Estados Unidos formada por el cantante Adam Duritz (integrante de The Himalayans) y el guitarrista David Bryson en San Francisco durante 1991. La banda se hizo muy popular en 1993 después del debut del álbum "August and Everything After", caracterizado por el tema "Mr. Jones". El origen del nombre Counting Crows (en español: Contando Cuervos), proviene de una rima infantil que aparece en la película "Signs of Life" y que Adam Duritz incluyó en la canción "A Murder Of One".

A Long December is one of my favorite songs ever and I find this playing of the song sounds fuller and more like the album version.
I've included a few tab riffs which include certain melody and lead parts to give a more satisfying sound which resembles the album version of the song.
Tuning- A full step down or D Tuning
This riff is played at various parts after certain C chords which I noted with an asterisk * e|----------| B|----------| G|------0~--| D|--0h2-----| A|3---------| E|----------|

I wish you would.
[Verse 2] CGD The smell of hospitals in winter AmCG And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no C pearls AmCGD All at once you look across a crowded room AmGC To see the way that light attaches to a girl GCAm And it's one more day up in the canyons GCAm And it's one more night in Hollywood GCAm If you think you might come to California...

[Verse 3] CGDAm Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m. CGC And talked a little while about the year AmCGD I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower, AmGC Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her CGDAm And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe CGC Maybe this year will be better than the last AmCGD I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself AmGC To hold on to these moments as they pass GCAm And it's one more day up in the canyons GCAm And it's one more night in Hollywood GCAm It's been so long since I've seen the ocean... I guess I should
