What It Is  Mark Knopfler

Intro: F#m A | D E |
F#m | D E | X3
[F#m]Drink and dance are spilling out and straggering in the[A] square Thereâ??s lads and lasses fall[D]ing about and a crackelling in the air [A] [E]
Then around the dungeon doors thereâ??s shelters in the queues Everybodyâ??s looking for somebodyâ??s arms to fall into
[F#m]Itâ??s w[D]hat it[E] is [F#m] Itâ??s what it is [D]now [E]
[F#m]Hereâ??s frost on the graves and the monuments but the taverns [A]are warm in town ,People curse the government and shovel hot f[D]ood down [A] [E]
Lights are out in cityhall ,the castle and the keep, Moon shines down upon it all the legless and the sleepless
[D]Cold on a tollgate where the wagons cre[A]eping through
[D]Cold on a tollgate God knows what I [A]can do [E]
[F#m]Hmm thatâ??s what it is [D] [E] Itâ??s [F#m]what it is now [D] [E]
Riff1
[F#m]The garnison sleeps and the citadel with the ghosts and the a[A]ncient stones High on the parapet the scottish pipe[D]rs stands alone [A] [E]
High on the wind the howling runes speak of the rule And something from the past just comes and stares into my soul
Cold on a tollgate where the caledonian moves
Cold on a tollgate god knows what I can do with you
Thatâ??s what it is (riff1) Itâ??s what it is now (riff2)
[F#m]Thereâ??s a chink of light as a burning wick
[A]Thereâ??s a lantern in the tower
[D]Wee Willie Winkie with the candle sticks still writing songs in the mean Wee hours [A] [E]
[F#m]On charlotte street they take a walking stick from my hotel [A]
[D]The ghost of dirty dick is still in search of little nell [E]
Thatâ??s what it isâ?¦..
