Bon Iver (pronuncia-se boun-ivérr) é uma banda de indie folk fundada em 2007 em Eau Claire, Wisconsin, Estados Unidos e liderada pelo cantor e compositor norte-americano Justin Vernon, juntamente com Michael Noyce, Sean Carey e Matt McCaughan. Justin lançou de forma independente o álbum debut da banda, For Emma, Forever Ago em julho de 2007, sendo que grande parte dele foi gravada quando Justin ficou três meses dentro de uma cabana isolada no noroeste do Wisconsin. O nome Bon Iver deriva do francês "bon hiver" que significa bom inverno.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Obviously this is an acoustic rendition and isn't the way Justin plays it, but sometimes you just can't be bothered to retune. This is for those occasions.
I play with the Capo on the 4th fret with standard tuning. Obviously change the capo position depending on your voice if needed. Strum pattern is very simple. If you're a beginner and are having some problems then I'd recommend persevering and listening to the song over and over (fortunately it's a great song!). If you become dependent on strum patterns then you won't develop your ear or rhythmic abilities.

Em7Dsus4 Well I met you at the blood bank Cadd9 We were looking at the bags Em7Dsus4 Wondering if any of the colours Cadd9 Matched any of the names we knew on the tags G You said: "see look that's yours" Dsus4/F# Stacked on top with your brothers Em7 See how they resemble one another? Cadd9 Even in their plastic little covers Cadd9Em7Dsus4 And I said I...... know it well........
G That secret that you know Dsus4/F# That you don't know how to tell G It f**ks with your honour Dsus4/F# And it teases your head Em7 But you know that it's good girl Cadd9 'cause its running you with red.
Em7Dsus4 Then the snow started falling Cadd9 We were stuck out in your car Em7Dsus4 You were rubbing both my hands Cadd9 Chewing on a candy bar G You said: "ain't this just like the present" Dsus4/F# To be showing up like this Em7 There's a moon waning crescent Cadd9 We started to kiss Cadd9Em7Dsus4 And I said I...... know it well........
G That secret that we know Dsus4/F# That we don't know how to tell G I'm in love with your honour Dsus4/F# I'm in love with your cheeks Em7 What's that noise up the stairs babe? Cadd9 Is that Christmas morning?
Cadd9Em7Dsus4 And I...... know it well........ (Repeat and fade 'til heart's content)
