To learn Mark Knopfler - (Newcastle, 18.05.2013) Newcastle chords, these are the chords to practise in sequence: C#m, A, E, B and E. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 60 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 121. With the song's key of E Major, set your capo to fit your vocal range and chord choice.
