Subject: CRD : Reelin in the years - correction to Nevada file
~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/D# 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/D# 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 :

Em7 B/D# Dm7 A/C#

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/D# 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/D# 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.
