The chords aren't necessarily in the right place over the words,
but are round about where they should be played.

This is how I play it:


Em G Em

C                               Em
don't you cherish me to sleep   Aaah
C                          Em
never keep your eyelids clipped
G                        D
hold me for the pops and clicks
      C                     G
I was only for the father's crib

C   Em

Em         D    G*
hair, old, long along
C                                    Em
your neck onto your shoulder blades  Aaah
C                          Em
always keep that message taped
G                            D
cross your breasts you won't erase
             C              G
I was only for your very space

C Em
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bon_iver/calgary_crd_ver_4.html ]
Em      D     G*
hip, under nothing
C                                 Em
propped up by your other one, face 'way from the sun
C                       Em
just have to keep a dialogue
G                          D
teach our bodies: haunt the cause
              C             G
I was only trying to spell a loss

C Em

Em        D     G*
joy, it's all founded
C                             Em
pincher with the skin inside  Aaah
C                                   Em
you pinned me with your black sphere eyes
G                            D
you know that all the rope's untied
            C              G
I was only for to die beside

C  Em   C

Em                         G*
so it's storming on the lake
                                C  (fill)
little waves our bodies break
Em                   G*
there's a fire going out,
                                        C   (fill)
but there's really nothing to the south
Em                                 G*
swollen orange and light let through
                                       C  (fill)
your one piece swimmer stuck to you

Em         G
sold, I'm Ever
C                            Em
open ears and open eyes
C                             Em
wake up to your starboard bride
G                             D
who goes in and then stays inside
                  C                G
oh the demons come, they can subside
