Nacido en Glasgow en 1952 de un padre arquitecto. David creció en Newcastle, Inglaterra. Fué fundador junto a su hermano Mark Knopfler de los Dire Straits. David toco la guitarra rítmica en los 2 primeros discos de Dire Straits, grupo que abandonó a los inicios de la grabación de Making Movies debido al protagonismo de Mark en el mismo.

David Knopfler - Shadowlands
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: G C (4x)
G
Does the Shadowman possess you?
C G
Is your dream still sweet and real?
C Em
Pain will always follow pleasure
Bm
That's how Nature cuts her deal
C G
Every moment precious
D C
It was time alone we'd steal
D
First it's heaven, then it's hell
C D
To allow all that we feel
CHORUS:
C G D Em
I'm going down to these Shadowlands, yeah, yeah
C G Bm
Shadowlands
C G D Em
Try, what you can't cure, you must endure
C D A
In these Shadowlands
BRIDGE:
Climbing and disowning
Em A
You've made acquisitions
Trading love for the masquerade
Em D
Just to realize positions
G
You put your mouth in someone else's pocket
C G
So you still need someone to blame
C Em
You turn your victim over
Bm
But lay bare your face and name
C G
You who vanquish memories
D C
In your power lust for fame
D
Brother Banquo he'll be calling
C D
Yeah, it's Halloween again
C D
I may be leaning' on his shoulder
C D
In ya killing fields of shame
CHORUS:
C G D Em
And I'll return from these Shadowlands, yeah, yeah
C G Bm
Shadowlands
C G D Em
Ah, what we don't cure must be endured
C D Em
In these shadowlands
Lead Break: C G C Em C G D
(Yeah, yeah) (These shadowlands) (Shadowlands)
G
Where e'er the Fates may hide us
C G
From the dark seas of our dreams
C Em
I pray you yet may find us
Bm
If you share these final scenes
C G
By God's grace, let you be the one
C
Who'll hear every sad refrain
D
In the echoes of a love song
C D
On The Late Show playing
C D
A survivor of the airwaves
C D
Seen the sun going down in flames
C D
While framed against the doorway
C D
A silhouette in chains
CHORUS:
C G D Em
Hell-bound for these Shadowlands, yeah, yeah
C G Bm
Shadowlands
C G D Em
Ah, what we don't cure must be endured
C D Em
In these Shadowlands
C G D Em
And if we won't learn we sure will burn
C D Em
In Shadowlands
