~Title: REELIN' IN THE YEARS (Steely Dan) Your ever lastin' summer, you can see it fadin' fast, So you grab a piece of somethin' that you think is gonna last. / / Well, you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand; 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 : 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.

CHORUS: Are you reelin' in the years, stowin away the time? | | Are you gatherin' up the tears, have you had enough of mine | | Are you reelin' in the years, stowin away the time? | | Are you gatherin' up the tears, have you had enough of mine You been tellin' me you're a genius since you were seventeen; In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean. / / The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned; The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand. CHORUS I've spent a lit of money and I spent a lot of time; The trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind. / / After all the things we've done and seen you find another man; The things you think are useless I can't understand.
