I figured this out this morning after hearing the album on NPR's "First Listen" (http://www.npr.org/2011/06/09/136855313/first-listen-bon-iver-bon-iver). I have no way of checking, but I'm pretty sure that this is correct and in the appropriate tuning(UPDATE: I have been informed that the actual tuning has now been posted on Justin Vernon's twitter). I have included all of the chords used in this song, and if you listen along with the track, you should be able to play any part that I did not cover specifically.

Tuning (Low to High): DGDF#AD, capo I

Here's a rough tab that I made:

d]-------------------------------------0-------------------------0-----------2h4­/5/4p2p0
a]----------------2-----------------4----4-------------------4------------0-----­----------:l f#]------------3------------------3----------3------------3---------------------­------------:l
d]----------0-------------------------------------------------------------------­-------------:l
G]—0----------------------2---------------------4-------------------------------­---------:l
D]------------------------------------------------------------------------------­-------------:l

section II

d]------------------------------------------------------------------------------­-------:l a]---10---------5---------9---------4p2-(2)--2--------------2--------------2---:­l f#]--10---------5---------8---------3----(3)--3-----------3--------------3------­:l
d]----9---x5---4---x5---7----x5---0---------0-------0--------------0---------:l
G]—-9---------4---------7--------------------0------------------0--------------:­l
D]------------------------------------------------------------------------------­-----:l

  • what kinda amp you got?

  • @theused0321 A Marshall Class 5.

  • its such a beutiful song, cant get enough of the album

  • @zacke91 I couldn't agree with you more

  • sounds fine, but according to justin vernon's twitter it's tuned to EBD#F#BE, with I'm assuming a capo on the 4th fret

  • @SuperBernardshakey oops- I had no clue. I guess I'll figure out how to do it the proper way and repost eventually.

see all

  • it's awesome, you're really good

  • @siroliver1 I would love to see the "correct version" :) great job anyway! one of my favorite songs of all time!

  • it can be played just as easily in standard tuning with capo on 1 as well
