Artist: Mark Knopfler
Title:  Boom, Like That
Tab by: matagu@o2.pl

Full tone down (d g c f a d) - I was tuned to mark guitar, I don't know 
what tuning he is using, anyway, should be ok with 

that.

Main melody (with delay) - it isn't exactly that what Mark plays, but 
just play sth aroud that chords ;)

Play that above two times before Mark start singing "I'm going to San Bernardino..." and on and on :), until "Or my name is 

not Kroc" line. Then the other guitar joins with this:

Then the second verse "The folks line up..."


Along with line "Oughtta be one of these in every town" play this:
d|--------------------------

f|--------------------------
Same as "Wham, bam, you don't wait long, Shake, fries, patty, your gone", 
there are few sound before this but I couldn't 

figure them out.


Again play "Or my name is not Kroc" part and "Kroc style" fill-in. And here 
we go ^__^ - solo 1st! Sorry for no timing, but 

I'm too lazy to write it down, it's easy anyway.
