Biografía:
Dire Straits fue una banda de Rock británica, fundada en 1977 por Mark Knopfler (guitarra y voz), David Knopfler (guitarra), John Illsley (bajo) y Pick Withers (batería), con Ed Bicknell como director.
Dire Straits grabó y realizó su primer álbum homónimo en 1978 con poca aceptación hasta que cinco meses después se lanzó un sencillo, Sultans of Swing, que convirtió el disco en uno de los más vendidos. El segundo álbum, Communiqué se lanzó poco después; estos dos primeros trabajos configuraron el sonido de la banda.

Dire Straits - Skateaway
INTRO: D G-C (4x)
D G C
I seen a girl on a one-way corridor
D G C G D
Stealing down a wrong-way street
G C
For all the world like an urban toreador
D G C G D
She had wheels on, on her feet
G C D
The cars do the usual dances
G C G D
Same old cruise and the kerbside crawl
G C D
But the Rollergirl, she's taking chances
G C G
Just love to see her take them all
CHORUS 1:
A
No fears alone at night
C Em A
Sailing through the crowd
C
In her ears the phones are tight
A D A D
And the music's playing loud
G C D
Hallelujah, here she comes
G C G D
Queen rollerball
G C D
And "Enchanté", what can I say
G C G D
Care at all
G C
You know, she used to have to wait around
D G C G D
She used to be the lonely one
G C D
But now that she can skate around town
G C G
She's the only, only one

A
No fears alone at night

Sailing through the crowd

In her ears the phones are tight
D
And the music's playing loud

She gets rock n roll, on a rock n roll station

Rollergirl, don't worry

D.J. play the movies all night long, all night long
G C D
She tortures taxi drivers just for fun
G C G D
She like to read their lips
G C D
Says, "Toro, toro taxi, see ya tomorrow my son"
G C G D
She just let a big truck grease her hip, ah!
G C G D
She got her own world in the city, hey

You can't intrude on her, no, no, no
G C D
She got her own world in the city
G C G
The city's been so rude to her
