    Hi,
  •  
    I was rapt that Martijn posted his TAB version as I had sort of dropped
    my transcription after working through the first verse and chorus.
  •  
    Anyway, since mine is slightly different from Nicks, (BTW - I got mine
    from the recording on the "money for nothing" album), and since I have
  • a copy of the lyrics, I thought I'd throw mine in too - It's fun to
    experiment with different versions.
     
  • I am using the standard TAB notation as proposed by
    robc@Newbridge.COM (Rob Craig), however I am adding a "." (full stop)
    above notes to indicate a staccatto (accented, very short note). I also
  • use "ARP" to indicate that you are to play a broken chord, and one or
    more caret "^" characters to indicate a tie. Perhaps Rob could add these?
     
  • Also most "labelled chords" (eg The initial D minors) are to be strummed
    rapidly. Knopfler uses demi-semi-quavers with certain stokes muted.

    You get a shiver in the dark, it's raining in the park, but meantime
    South of the river you stop and you hold everything
  • A band is blowing Dixie, double four time
    You feel alright when you hear that music ring
     
  • You step inside, but you don't see too many faces
    Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
    Too much competition, from other places
  • But not too many horns can make that sound
     
    Way on downsouth, way on downsouth London town
  •  
    You check out Guitar George; he knows all the chords
    Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
  • And an old guitar is all he can afford
    When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
     
  • And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
    He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
    He can play the honkytonk just like anything
  • Saving it up for friday night
     
    With the Sultans, with the Sultans of Swing
  •  
    And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
    Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
  • They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
    It aint what they call Rock and Roll
     
  • And the Sultans played Creole
     
    And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
  • And says at last just as the time bell rings
    'Thankyou, goodnight; now it's time to go home'
    And he makes it fast with one more thing...
