Dire Straits' Walk of Life: ukulele tutorial

The fabulous 'Walk of Life' was a chart hit in 1985 from the blockbuster album 'Brother in Arms'; the song started out as a tribute to street buskers. My favourite Dire Straits song, which we covered a few months back and had to make up a little riff to try and match the brilliant original sound.
