This is one of the more straightforward Steely Dan tunes in terms chord vs. bassline and all those funky Fagen keyboard voicings. It's from the Aja album, and I think most Dan fans will find it familiar and fun to play.

| | | I know this superhighway
| | | This bright, familiar sun
| | | | I guess that I'm the lucky one
| | | Who wrote that tired sea song
| | | Set on this peaceful shore
| | | | | You think you've heard this one before
* Chorus *
| | | | | Well the danger on the rocks is surely past
| | | | | Still I remain tied to the mast
| | | | | Could it be that I have found my home at last
| | | | | Home at last (Horn Lick)
| Gm7 | x8bars
* Vs.II *
She serves the smooth retsina She keeps me safe and warm It's just the calm before the storm Call in my reservation So long, hey thanks my friend I guess I'll try my luck again
The 'Synth Solo' part is tough to make sense of without someone actually playing the solo along with you. Try playing it with the album to get the feel... I'm fairly certain the chords are correct.
