Tuning:
Your Latest Trick by Dire Straits from Brothers In Arms album
For any questions mail me to fffoma@gmail.com
This is a chords for album version of the song. Please note that live version contains
exact same verses, but on album part of verses alternates between [B-C#m-B-C#] and
[B-C#m-B/D#-C#/F] all three times. Live version also have [E-F#m] progression after
'All I can do' instead of [E/G#-A]. Note suspended chords in the intro, you can
simplify it to B and B/A or play it like sus in the song too.
Two chords in particular — F#m9b5 and D13#11 are very tricky to play on a guitar,
so I replaced these with more approrpiate Am6 and D9. Good luck!
