Biography:
Dire Straits were a British rock band from Newcastle, United Kingdom, formed in 1977 by Mark Knopfler (guitar and vocals), his brother David Knopfler (guitar), John Illsley (bass), and Pick Withers (drums), and subsequently managed by Ed Bicknell. The band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018.
Dire Straits emerged during the post-punk era of the late '70s, and while their sound was minimalistic and stripped down, they owed little to punk.

[Verse 1]
G#m E F#
These mist covered mountains
B Bsus4 B
Are home now for me
D#m G#m D#m
But my home is the low lands
E F#sus4 F#
And always will be
G#m D#m
Someday you'll return to
E C#m F#sus4
Your valley and your farms
F# B
And you'll no longer burn
E F#sus4 F#
To brothers in arms
[Solo]
G#m E C#m
[Verse 2]
G#m E F#
Through these fields of destruction
B Bsus4 B
Baptisms of fire
D#m G#m D#m
I've watched all your suffering
. E F#sus4 F#
As the battles raged higher
G#m D#m
And though they did hurt me so bad
E C#m F#sus4
In the fear and alarm
F# B
You did not desert me
E F#sus4 F#
My brothers in arms
[Solo]
G#m E C#m
[Refrain]
G#m F# G#m B F#
There's so many different worlds
B E F#
So many different suns
F# G#m F#
And we have just one world
B E E
But we live in different ones
[Solo]
G#m E C#m E G#m E
C#m C#m E F# G#m
[Verse 3]
G#m E F#
Now the sun's gone to hell
B Bsus4 B
And the moon's riding high
D#m G#m D#m
Let me bid your farewell
E F#sus4 F#
Everyman has to die
G#m D#m
But its written in the starlight
E C#m F#sus4
ANd every line on your palm
F# B
We're fools to make war
E F#
On our brothers in arms
