~Title: REELIN' IN THE YEARS (Steely Dan)


      D               A/C#            Bm7                 A
Your ever lastin' summer, you can see it fadin' fast,
      D                       A/C#            Bm7                 A
So you grab a piece of somethin' that you think is gonna last.
      C#/E                          C/Eb          B/D           A/C#
Well, you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand;
      D                     A/C#            Bm7            A
The things you think are precious I can't understand.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is what I dug out from Nevada. The first two lines are fine...

But C#/E   ,  C/Eb    etc for the third and fourth lines  ?????

If you try these chords, they sound pretty weird. C# with an E bass ?

If you try E with a C# bass it's almost right though I prefer these chorts :

    Em7                    B/D#             Dm7                A/C#
you wouldn't even know  a diamond  if  you held  it  in your  hand

Probably it was a slip up when it was typed in, cos' everything except this
line is Ok.

Chord shapes :

   EADGBE     EADGBE    EADGBE    EADGBE
   x79787     x6987x    x57565    x4765x

    Em7        B/D#       Dm7      A/C#

Title: REELIN' IN THE YEARS (Steely Dan)


      D               A/C#            Bm7                 A
Your ever lastin' summer, you can see it fadin' fast,
      D                       A/C#            Bm7                 A
So you grab a piece of somethin' that you think is gonna last.
      C#/E                          C/Eb          B/D           A/C#
Well, you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand;
      D                     A/C#            Bm7            A
The things you think are precious I can't understand.


                          Gmaj9                    A
CHORUS: Are you reelin' in the years, stowin away the time?
  |                              Gmaj9                         A
  | Are you gatherin' up the tears, have you had enough of mine
  |                           Gmaj9                    A
  | Are you reelin' in the years, stowin away the time?
  |                              Gmaj9                         F#m7
  | Are you gatherin' up the tears, have you had enough of mine

      D                            A/C#     Bm7             A
You been tellin' me you're a genius since you were seventeen;
      D               A/C#               Bm7                        A
In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean.
      C#/E                   C/Eb          B/D              A/C#
The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned;
      D                 A/C#              Bm7           A
The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand.

CHORUS


      D                     A/C#         Bm7            A
I've spent a lit of money and I spent a lot of time;
      D                     A/C#      Bm7                A
The trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind.
      C#/E                   C/Eb                B/D          A/C#
After all the things we've done and seen you find another man;
      D                      A/C#          Bm7         A
The things you think are useless I can't understand.


CHORUS
