If you don't have a copy of this song go and visit kazaa.com and you can download it from there with Kazaa. I think you can buy the concert on CD as well if you prefer. It is the only version of this song worth having in my opinion. It is probably the best guitar playing i have ever heard in my life. Mark Knopfler just has magic in his fingertips. So here it is all tabbed out for you. The tab is pretty perfect, there might be one or two wrong notes in there but on the whole it should be note for note. I haven't tabbed out the timing right but if you listen to the song you should hear the timing, the notes here are correct. If i don't know the note or if i'm unsure i'll put a '?' under the tab at it. ----------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------4--------- ------------------------3-4--3-4-3-------------4---6------- -------6-8-6---6-8-6---------------6-4-6-6----------------- ---4-6----------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- --4--------------------------------------------4----------- ----6-4-3---6-4-3----------4-3--4-3-1---1-1--4---6--------- ----------6-------6----4-6------------1-------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- I indicate (approximatively) when to play what by putting lyrics fragments under the tab.
