News Lyrics

I tried to work on this song. Here is the result for those who might
be interested...
NEWS (dire Straits)
Opening lick (+verses) : play the following chords
Lead guitar:
|---|-8---10-8-7-7(8)-7-------7~~~7(9)------|
He sticks to his guns, he takes the road as it comes
He takes the shine off his shoes
He says it's a shame, you know it may be a game
Ah but I won't play to lose -----------8-7-------------------
He's burning the grass, he takes up a glass
He swallows it neat ---------------------------------
-9(10)~~~9---7(9)7-7(9)7-7(9)~~~-
He crosses the floor, he opens the door
He takes a sniff at the street
But he climbs on his horse, you know he feels no remorse
He just kicks it alive ------------------------------------------
His motor is fine, He takes it over the line
Until he's ready to dive ----------------------
SOLO :
-20(22)-20-17-20-17------17---19(20)-19--------------10(12)~~~-------------------
He sticks to his guns, he takes the road as it comes
He takes the shine off his shoes
He says it's a shame you know it may be a game
Ah but I won't play it to lose
He sticks to his guns, he takes the road as it comes
He takes the shine off his shoes
He's too fast to stop, he takes it over the top
He makes a line in the news...

Vincent,
Nice song...News. I mite suggest using these chords instead to the
song..
G / Bm / C / Bm / Am / C for the verse
and C- D / C- D / Em9 (x2) for the chorus...
What do ya think?
