                             ON EVERY STDE T - Dire Straits

Tabbed by: woega

Tuning: standard

This is my interpretation of the ENTID  song, lyrics, chords,
tabs including the INTRO, all RIFFS, and the OUTRO.

I've tried to be as accurate as I can, but I'm open for suggestions :)
The tabs that are directly underneath lyrics are meant to be played 
with the lyrics,
when there's a blank line then they're played AFTER the words.


        F/C        C         G/B      C
There's gotta be a record of you some place
    Am          G/B        C
you gotta be on somebody's books
F/C     C        G/B             Esus4
    the lowdown, picture of your face
Am              Em/G
    your injured looks
F                     C
    the sacred and profane
F                        C/G G
    the pleasure and the pain
C              G/B            Am      Em
somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete
    Dm                 Bb         F/Bb   C
and it's your face I'm looking for    on every street

          Am

Ok now the famous 'On every street' theme appears for the first time.
The piano plays the following chords:
F G6 D/F# Em F Em Gsus4 G A9

If you want to play them on guitar I would play them like depicted 
below. Put emphasis
on the notes with a * to hear the melody:

    F   G6  D/F# Em  F   Em  Gsus4 G   A9
E|--x---0*--x----x---x---x---x-----x---x---|

    silver spurs on his heels
F/C            C               G/B              Esus4
    what can I tell you as I'm standing next to you

The second time the main theme is played twice.
The first of which is like the one above, but without the A9 at the 
end:

    F  G6  D/F# Em  F   Em  Gsus4  G
E|--x---0*--x----x---x---x---x-----x---| 
B|--x---0---3*---x---x---0*--1*----0*--| 
G|--2*--0---2----0*--2*--0---0-----0---| 
D|--3---0---0----2---3---2---0-----0---| 
A|--3---2---0----2---3---2---2-----2---| 
E|--1---3---2----0---1---0---3-----3---| 

The second time, as the piano plays the chords, Mark joins in for some 
accents, but does
not play the entire tune yet. For timing purposes I added the chords 
above the tabs:


     F  G6  D/F# Em     F  Em  Gsus4 G   A9
E|---------------------------------------------------|

  F/C         C        G/B          C
a three-chord symphony crashes into space
    Am              G/B    C
the moon is hanging upside down
F/C             C             G/B          Esus4
     I don't know why it is I'm still on the case

   and every victory has a taste that's bittersweet

Ok now the hard part :)
For the rythm guitar, just play the chords we have seen before 
repeatedly (without the A9):

  F G6 D/F# Em F Em Gsus4 G

Now I hope I can explain the lead part well enough because it involves
MK-style finger picking. I'll start with the main tune first, and then 
add
some tips to ad some flavour.

We'll start with a little practice.
First of all the chords are the same, but played a bit different.
Try to position your fingers as below, but only play the note marked 
with * to
get familiar with the positions:

    F  G6   D/F# Em  F   Em  Gsus4 G
E|--1---x---x----0---1---0---x-----x---| 
B|--1---5*--3*---0---1---0*--1*----0*--| 
G|--2*--4---2----0*--2*--0---0-----0---| 
D|--3---5---0----2---3---2---0-----0---| 
A|--3---x---0----2---3---2---2-----2---| 
E|--1---3---1----0---1---0---3-----3---| 

To make things a bit more interesting, we add the bass notes, and the 
little extra notes
Mark plays.
Again try to position your fingers as indicated, but only play the 
notes with *:

    F  G6   D/F# Em  F   Em  Gsus4 G      F  G6   D/F# Em        F   Em  
E|--1---x---x----0---1---0---x-----x---|--1---x---x----0---------1---
B|--1---5*--3*---0---1---0*--1*----0*--|--1---5*--3*---0---------1---
G|--2*--4---2----0*--2*--0---0-----0---|--2*--4---2----0*----0*--2*--
D|--3---5---0----2---3---2---0-----0---|--3---5---0----2---2*----3---
A|--3---x---0----2---3---2---2-----2---|--3---x---0----2---------3---
E|--1*--3*--1*---0*--1*--0*--3*----3*--|--1*--3*--1*---0*--------1*--
  Gsus4 G
E|0---x-----x---|---------| 
B|0*--1*----0*--|--1*-0*--| 
G|0---0-----0---|---------| 
D|2---0-----0---|---------| 
A|2---2-----2---|---------| 
E|0*--3*----3*--|---------| 

This is how I play it. Upper to strings are played with index or middle
 finger,
bass notes with the thumb. I'll try to be as accurate as I can.

    F     G6       D/F#     Em       F        Em       G6       G
