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.

Intro [ E ]
E
Well it's a strange old game - you learn it slow
E
One step forward and it's back to go
E
You're standing on the throttle
E
You're standing on the breaks
E
In the groove 'til you make a mistake
E
Sometime you're the windshield
A
Sometime you're the bug
E
Sometime it all comes together baby
A
Sometime you're a fool in love
E
Sometime you're the louisville slugger
A
Sometime you're the ball
E
Sometime it all come together baby
A
Sometime you're gonna lose it all, (groovin')
[ E E E E E E A E ]
E
You gotta know happy - you gotta know glad
E
Because you're gonna know lonely
E
And you're gonna know bad
E
When you're rippin' and a ridin'
E
And you're coming on strong
E
You start a slippin' and slidin'
E
And it all goes wrong because
E
Sometime you're the windshield
A
Sometime you're the bug
E
Sometime it all comes together baby
A
Sometime you're a fool in love
E
Sometime you're the louisville slugger
A
Sometime you're the ball
E
Sometime it all come together baby
A
Sometime you're gonna lose it all, (groovin')

E
One day you got the glory
E
Then you got none
E
One day you're a diamond
E
And then you're a stone
E
Everything can change
E
In the blink of an eye
E
So let the good time roll
E
Before we say goodbye, because
E
Sometime you're the windshield
A
Sometime you're the bug
E
Sometime it all comes together baby
A
Sometime you're a fool in love
E
Sometime you're the louisville slugger
A
Sometime you're the ball
E
Sometime it all come together baby
A
Sometime you're gonna lose it all, (groovin')
