This is the version that I figured out, after listening to the song about
12,000 times. It's not nearly as rich as the one that Mark Knopfler does,
but it certainly makes it recognizable. And it's fun to play. Any
corrections/additions are quite welcome.
Song: "Rome and Juliet"
Group: Dire Straits
Album: Making Movies
The intro starts out with a D-structured F chord: strum and then pick out
the first three notes, then strum again. Next, pick the last three notes
of the F chord and slide the picking down the E-string to a Bb chord:
F(D-struct) Bb (strum a few times)
E---5------------------5-------------5--3--0-----1--------------------
B---6----------6-------6----------6--------------3--------------------
G---5-------5----------5-------5-----------------3--------------------
D---7----7------------------------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------------
Now pick on the E-string back up to the D-struct. F chord and pick those
first 3 notes again, then strum. Now quickly move to a downward sweep pick
on the F chord barred at the first fret (plus the unfretted E-string note),
which leads back to the Bb:
F(D-struct) F(barred,1st fret) Bb(strum...)
--0h1--3----5----------------5------------------1-----0----1---------
------------6----------6-----6---------------1--------------3---------
------------5-------5--------5------------2-----------------3---------
------------7----7---------------------3------------------------------
------------------------------------3---------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now it's back up the E-string to the D-struct F for more of the same
(the rest of the band kicks in here and starts to obscure things).
F(D-struct) Bb(strum...)
--0h1--3----5------------------5-------------5--3--0-----1------------
------------6---------6--------6----------6--------------3------------
------------5------5-----------5-------5-----------------3------------
------------7---7-----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This time on the way back up to the D-struct F we play the A and G notes
on the E-string. Then do the D-struct F thing again, then do a quick
downward seep-pick on the open C chord, with the high G note added (1st
string at 3rd fret). An open E-string then leads to the Bb.
Then it's up to the D-struct F for the start of the lyrics:
F(D-struct) Bb(strum/pick...)
--5--3------5-------------5------------------3---0---1-------0h1--3--- etc
------------6---------5---6---------------1----------3----------------
------------5------6------5------------0-------------3----------------
------------7---7-------------------2---------------------------------
---------------------------------3------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
F(Dstruct) Dm (open) C(open) F(1st fret)

C(barre 3rd fret) Bb C(3rd fret) F(1st fret)

Bb C(3rd fret)

Then add that nice little riff:
--0--0-----------
--------3--1----- Followed by strumming F(1st fret).
--------------3--
F(1st fret) C(open) Dm(open)
Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo! you ....
C(open) F(1st fret) C(open) Dm(open) Bb

C(3rd fret) Bb C(3rd fret) F(1st fret)

Bb C(3rd fret)
Anyway, what you ...
F(1st fret) C(3rd fret) Dm(5th fret) C(3rd fret) Bb

And I bet and you ...
C F C Bb Dm(open) Bb
And I forget, I forget, ...
Gm F Bb C B C F
--3-- When you gonna realize it was ...
--3--
--3--
And now you can do the downward sweep-picking on the F(1st fret) to get
to the Bb, then pick up the E-string to get to the D-struct F again. That's
about it (at least, that's as much as I'm able to do).
Hope this helps. Again, any corrections/additions/suggestions are welcome.
