Chords

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Zach Jensen E-mail: [email protected] Great song by Dire Straits, with a lot of guitar riffs on a metal kind of sound. The riffs after each line are played after he sings each line. You can play the riffs or the chords. I credit the chords to the user lakesound. It will take some listening to the song to get the right timing and so forth. ************************************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note | b Bend | br Bend release | < Volume swell ************************************ Chords to be played along with the intro solo : Em7 A Em7 A Em7 A Em7 A A
