Guitar Tab

Dire Straits ~V Brothers in Arms Version von On the night

Hi this is the tab of brothers in arms dire straits´s playing at the cd ~DOn the night~S. The tab is quite good. But especially in the last solo from mark knopfler it´s very difficult to hear if he´s banding, sliding, pulling, ... . So feel free to try to make this tab better or play in your own style.

H hammer
p pull
b band (6b7b6 means that you play hold the string on 6 and band until it has the sound of 7/ (6)b7 means that you play the string when it is banded not before)
s slide
/ volume fade in

the vertical lines only indicate a distance between the different parts
