standard tuning
capo on 4th fret

transcribed from the “a night in london” dvd
from the early days of mark knopfler’s solo
career . the acoustic guitar has a stronger
presence in this version than in both studio version
and other live recordings and the 12 string acoustic
guitar gives this version a special sound .

intro :
Em – C – Am
Em – C – Am
Em – C – Am – C – D
Em – C – Am

Em C D
these mist covered mountains

G C G
are a home now for me

Em Bm
but my home is the lowlands

C D
and always will be

Em Bm
some day you’ll return to

C D
your valleys and your farms

Em
and you’ll no longer burn

C D
to be brothers in arms

Em – C – Am

same chord progression for the rest of the
song .
