D5 A5 B5 A5 Your ever lastin' summer, you can see it fadin' fast, D5 A5 B5 A5 So you grab a piece of somethin' that you think is gonna last. C#5 C5 B5 A5 Well, you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand; D5 A5 B5 A5 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 : E5 B5 D5 A5 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.
