~Title: REELIN' IN THE YEARS (Steely Dan)
D Your ever lastA/C#in' summer, you Bm7can see it fadin' faAst,
D So you grab a piece ofA/C# somethin' that Bm7you think is gonna lAast.
C#/E C/Eb B/D A/C#
Well, you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand;
D The things you thinkA/C# are precious I Bm7can't understanAd.

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 Em7wouldn't even know a dB/D#iamond if you hDm7eld it in your hA/C#and
Probably it was a slip up when it was typed in, cos' everything except this
line is Ok.
