  Someone requested tab for this one - It's all based on pretty simple chords, 

  so I'm just going to give the chord shapes for most of it.

  

  My memory's failed me on the words , so I'll type some to give an idea of

  how chords and words match up

  

  

                    MY OLD SCHOOL       -    STEELY DAN

  VERSE:

  -------

  

  (each chord is strummed on the 2 and 4 beats for most of the verse)

  

  

    G                                  Em

  CHORUS

  Rhythmic riff-thing:

  E-----------5---5--7-7---------------}

  

  

  C  Cdim  D

  

  

  Then back to another verse

  

  Just after the riff above, before the last verse (I think) there's

  a bit more instrumental stuff with saxes.
