Subject: CRD : Reelin in the years - correction to Nevada file
~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 , etc for the third and fourth lines ?????
If you try these chords, they sound pretty weird. with an bass ?
If you try with a 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.
Chord shapes :
x79787 x6987x x57565 x4765x

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.
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.
CHORUS
