Em D C/E Bm/F#
He sticks to his guns, he takes the road as it comes,
Am C
he takes the shine off his shoes
Em D C/E Bm/F#
He says it's a shame, you know it may be a game,
Am C
Ah, but I won't play to lose
He's burning the grass, he takes up a glass, he swallows it neat
He crosses the floor, he opens the door, he takes a sniff at the street

And she tell him that he's crazy, She's saying listen baby,
Em
I'm your wife
C D C D C Cadd9
She tells him he's crazy, For gambling with his life,
But he climbs on his horse, you know he feels no remorse,
he just kicks it alive
His motor is fine, He takes it over the line,
until he's ready to dive
{SOLO 2 times on verse (see other tab), then stick}
He sticks to his guns, he takes the road as it comes,
he takes the shine off his shoes
He says it's a shame,you know it may be a game,
Ah but I won't play it to lose
He sticks to his guns, he takes the road as it comes
He takes the shine off his shoes
He's too fast to stop, he takes it over the top
He makes a line in the news... fade out on G A, G A, etc

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.
