I transcribed the intro and the chords, but not the individual licks Knopfler uses,
in D major though, and they shouldn't be to hard for you to figure out.
This is NOT THE LIVE VERSION, he changes the end of the intro in the live version,
other stuff.

*Slide down from A to G7, to get the chromatic feel the song has
from knopflers licks.
Red sun goin down way over dirty town
Bm D A G7
Starlings, they're sweeping around yeh crazy shoals
Bm D A G7
Yes, and a girl is there High heeling out across the square
Bm D A G7
Wind it blows around in her hair and the flags upon the poles
Bm D A G7
Waiting in the crowd to cross at the light
Em7
She looks around to find a face she can like
G6 F#m7 Bm Bm F#m7 C7
