Biografia:
Dire Straits foi uma banda britânica de rock formada em 1977 por Mark Knopfler (guitarra e vocais), seu irmão David Knopfler (guitarra), John Illsley (baixo) e Pick Withers (bateria). Embora formada em uma época em que o punk rock reinava absoluto, decidiram lidar com as convenções do rock clássico, firmando-se em uma sonoridade mais leve, que agradou ao público cansado do som superproduzido do rock dos anos 70. Não tardou para que a banda se tornasse conhecida mundialmente

Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing
[Intro]
| Dm | Dm C | x4
[Verse 1]
Dm C Bb A
You get a shiver in the dark, it's raining in the park but meantime
Dm C Bb A
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
F C
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
Bb Dm Bb - C
You feel alright when you hear that music ring
[Verse 2]
Dm C Bb A
Well now, you step inside but you don't see too many faces
Dm C Bb A
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
F C
Competition in other places
Bb Dm
Uh, but the horns they blowin' that sound
Bb - C
way on down south
Bb - C
way on down south
Dm
London Town
[Instrumental]
Dm - C - Bb - C
Dm - C - Bb - C
[Verse 3]
Dm C Bb A
You check out Guitar George, he knows all the chords
Dm C Bb A
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
F C
They say an old guitar is all he can afford
Bb Dm Bb - C
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
[Verse 4]
Dm C Bb A
And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
Dm C Bb A
He's got a daytime job, he's doin' alright
F C
He can play the honky tonk like anything
Bb Dm Bb - C
Saving it up for Friday night
Bb - C
with the Sultans
Dm
with the Sultans of Swing
[Instrumental]
Dm - C - Bb - C
Dm - C - Bb - C
[Verse 5]
Dm C Bb A
Then a crowd of young boys, they're foolin' around in the corner
Dm C Bb A
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
F C
They don't give a damn about about any trumpet playin' band
Bb Dm Bb - C
It ain't what they call rock and roll
Bb - C
and the Sultans
Dm
Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole
[Instrumental]
Dm - C - Bb - C
... Creole

[Verse 6]
Dm C Bb A
And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
Dm C Bb A (A7)
And says at last just as the time bell ring
F C
Goodnight, now it's time to go home
Bb Dm Bb - C
Then he makes it fast with one more thing
Bb - C
We are the Sultans
Dm
We are the Sultans of Swing
