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.

A long time ago came a man on a track
C Bb F
walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
Bb C F C7
and he put down his load where he thought it was the best
Bb Gm7 Bb
he made a home in the wilderness
F Dm
he built a cabin and a winter store
C Am Bb F
and he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore
Bb C F C
and the other travellers came riding down the track
Bb F/A Gm7 Bb
and they never went further and they never went back
F Dm
then came the churches then came the schools
C Bb F
then came the lawyers then came the rules
Bb Csus4 C F C
then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
Bb Bb Dm
and the dirty old track was the telegraph road
F Dm
Then came the mines - then came the ore
C Bb Bb F
then there was the hard times then there was a war
Bb C F C7
telegraph sang a song about the world outside
Bb Gm7
telegraph road got so deep and so wide
Bb F
like a rolling river. . .

three lanes moving slow. . .

I used to like to go to work but they shut it down
C Bb
I've got a right to go to work but there's no work here to be found
F Bb C F C7
yes and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed
Bb Gm7
we're gonna have to reap from seed that's been sowed
Bb F Dm
and the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles

they can always fly away from this rain and this cold

you can here them singing out their telegraph code

You know I'd sooner forget but I remember those nights

you had your head on my shoulder you had your hand in my hair
Bb Gm7
now you act a little colder like you don't seem to care
Bb F Dm
but believe in me baby and I'll take you away
C Bb
from out of this darkness and into the day
C F C
from these rivers of headlights these rivers of rain
F/A Bb C7 F C
from the anger that lives on the streets with these names
F/A Bb C7 F F/A
'cos I've run every red light on memory lane
Bb C7 F C F/A
I've seen desperation explode into flames
Bb C7 F C
and I don't want to see it again. . .
