In the Gallery
by
DireStraits
-----------------------
Key: Am or (A#m on the record)
Intro: drums and guitar 0.5 0.5 1.0
Am D Am D - Am Am - C - D
Harry made a bareback rider proud and free upon a horse 0.5 0.5 0.5
Am D D - Am Am - C - D
And a fine coalminer for the NCB that was
(repeat chord sequence ahead....)
A fallen angel and Jesus on the cross
A skating ballerina you should have seen her do the skater's waltz
Some people have got to paint and draw
Harry had to work iin clay and stone
Like the waves coming to the shore
It was in his blood and in his bones
Ignored by all the trendy boys in London and in Leeds
Am D - G - C G
CHORUS: He might as well have been making toys or strings of beads
C C G C slide D
He could'nt be... He could'nt be..... in the gallery
And then you get an artist says he doesn't want to paint at all
He takes an empty canvas and sticks it on the wall
The birds of a feather all the phonies and all of the fakes
While the dealers they get together
And they decide who gets the breaks
And who's going to be in the gallery
Solo: Follow 1 verse chord pattern
and then do the chorus
No lies he wouldn't compromise
No junk no bits of string
And all the lies we subsidise
That just don't mean a thing
I've got to say he passed away in obscurity
And now all the vultures are coming down from the tree
So he's going to be in the gallery
(keep chord sequence going
ie Am - D.C / Am - D.C)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official DIRE STRAITS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
