WHAT IT IS by DIRE STRAITS
Tabbed out by JAKOB JØRGENSEN, 15 years, from Denmark.
Well, this is it (I think). I learned a lot from last time I
up-loaded a tab. This time I’ve made the lines shorter, and I hope
it will do. :D
IF THIS LOOKS LIKE SHIT WHILE YOU’RE READING IT
please contact me at jakojorger13@gmail.com. Then I’ll send a
proper tab to you.
I will be glad for some comments. xD
Then I have some comments on how to play it.
Mark plays it with pure finger-picking, but that’ll be hard if
you’re not used to. But a pick can do as well.
The slide-up/down in line three is made incredibly fast, first time
I heard the song I didn’t even hear it. This, and of course the
rest of the song, is played with Mark Knoflers unique tone and
elegance.

Sorry I haven't tabbed out the rest of the song. Maybe I’ll do the
rest in near future :)
Please comment?! If you like it I’ll definitely make more tabs.
Remember this is just the second, the first was “Something Good”
by D:A:D and it got totally fucked up by UG. So this is really a
test.
Have a nice day :P
