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.

[Ebmaj7] I know this [Bbmaj7]superhighway
[Ebmaj7] This bright,[Bbmaj7] familiar sun
[Ebmaj7] I gues[D7#9]s that[Gm7] I'm th[Ab7]e lucky[Gm7] one[Gm7]
[Ebmaj7] Who wrote th[Bbmaj7]at tired sea song
[Ebmaj7] Set on this [Bbmaj7]peaceful shore
[Ebmaj7] You thi[D7#9]nk you've h[Gm7]eard this[Ab7] one bef[Gm7]ore [Gm7]
* Chorus *
Well the [Cm7]danger on the r[Cm7]ocks is surely [Gm7]past[Gm7]
[Cm7]Still I remain [Cm7]tied to the mas[Dm7]t[Dm7]
Could it be[Cm7] that I have f[Cm7]ound my home at l[Bbmaj7]ast[Bbmaj7]
Home at last [Ebmaj7] (Horn Lic[Ebmaj7]k)[Ebmaj7] [Ebmaj7]
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
* Chorus * plus Gm7 x8bars
* Synth Solo * F11 F11 F11 F11 (1/4 rest) A7
[Dm7] [Ab13] [Db7] [D7]
Gm7 x8bars
* Guitar Solo over Vs.I *
* Chorus *
* Solo out on Gm7 *
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.
