---------------------------------------------------------------------------- LUMP SUM - Bon Iver ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Dan Glover (dan-the-man278) Email: dangloverenator@gmail.com Note that this is rough, and my interpretation. Although I think the chord shapes sound similar to what he plays on the record, I'm not sure that this tab is quite 100% correct (yet!) Tuning: DADGBd **CAPO 2** (but guitar on recording is possibly capo 3 slightly detuned, chords relative to capo) Also note, the lyrics aren't meant to be completely in time with the bars, it's just so know where you are! Finally, I've split the bars up as a fast 4 rather than a slow 2, if that makes sense CHORDS (the top strings are always very quiet, that Bon Iver/Justin Vernon bassy sound...): ====== Gmaj7: 55400x Em9 (bit of a stretch!): 25400x Dadd4: 05400x Cmaj7: x3200x Cmaj7*: swap between x3200x and x3400x (this is just a hammer-on/pull-off thing - listen for it) Cmaj9: x32000 C: x3201(0) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/b/bon-iver/178636.html ] STRUCTURE ========= INTRO (you know the strumming pattern...) ----------------------------------------- ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ ¦ Dadd4 ¦ Dadd4 ¦ Dadd4 ¦ Dadd4 ¦ ¦ Cmaj7*¦ Cmaj7*¦ Cmaj7*¦ Cmaj7*¦ ¦ Cmaj9 (ring..)¦ VERSE ----- ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Gmaj7 ¦ Em9 ¦ Em9 ¦ "Sold my cold knot..." ¦ Dadd4 ¦ Dadd4 ¦ Dadd4 ¦ Dadd4 ¦ "A heavy stone..."
