~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#

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.

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official STEELY DAN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
