C                    C            Am        G    
Someway, baby, it's part of me, apart from me.
        Am             F
you're laying waste to Halloween 
   C                                         Am             G
you xxxxed it friend, it's on it's head, it struck the street 
       Am             F
you're in Milwaukee, off your feet

strayed above the highway aisle 
 F      Am        C           G
jagged vacance, thick with ice 
                Am       F      G     C   
I could see for miles, miles, miles 

C                                 Am  G
3rd and Lake it burnt away, the hallway 
    Am                  F
was where we learned to celebrate 
C                                Am       G
automatic bought the years you'd talk for me 
     Am                F
that night you played me ?Lip Parade? 
C                                   Am   G
not the needle, nor the thread, the lost decree 
       Am               F
saying nothing, that's enough for me 

       F                                   Am   G
And at once I knew I was not magnificent 
F                                 Am  G
hulled far from the highway aisle 
  F      Am         C        G
jagged, vacance, thick with ice
                Am      F      G     C
I could see for miles, miles, miles 

C                                       Am             G
Christmas night, it clutched the light, the hallow bright 
C                     G
above my brother, I and tangled spines 
                                         Am     G
we smoked the screen to make it what it was to be 
       Am              F
now to know it in my memory: 

        F                               Am     G
And at once I knew I was not magnificent 
 F                           Am  G
high above the highway aisle 
 F       Am       C          G
jagged vacance, thick with ice 
                Am     F      G     C
I could see for miles, miles, miles

Biography

Bon Iver is a Grammy Award winning folk band from Eau Claire, Wisconsin, United States, and one of Justin Vernon’s current and most notable music projects to date. The band also consists of Mike Noyce, Sean Carey and Matt MacCaughan.

The name ‘Bon Iver’ (pronounced “bon ee-VAIR”) is a play on the French phrase ‘bon hiver’ meaning ‘good winter’. Vernon independently released Bon Iver’s debut album For Emma, Forever Ago in 2007, most of which was recorded during a four-month stay in a remote cabin in Wisconsin.
