Tabbed by: Joe V. E-mail: mrfoo2013@yahoo.com Tuning: ***CAPO 1***, Memphis Tuning/Stringing (still EADGBe) ***This tab sounds best in Nashville Tuning. I will explain that, but first, a ***Note on Nashville tuning: Nashville tuning is a different way of stringing a guitar. For this song, and maybe the whole album, Justin Vernon decided to re-string his guitar to get a higher-pitched, banjo-esque sound. To achieve the sound of the original recording, your guitar must be tuned Full Nashville. However, to get the fullest sound if you are playing solo acoustic, I recommend what I call 2/3 Nashville. If you don’t want to re-string your guitar, that is ok too, as it sounds great standard, 2/3, or Full. ***How to tune/re-string your guitar Full Nashville: Grab your standard guitar. What we are trying to achieve is a higher- pitched effect, and to do this, we are going to remove the 6th, 5th, 4th, and 3rd strings (EADG strings), leaving the 2nd and 1st (B and e) strings strung on the guitar. Now, open a new pack of standard guitar strings. Grab the 1st (e), 2nd (B), 3rd (G), and 4th (D) strings and take them out of the package. String the new 1st string where your old 3rd string was, the new 2nd string where your old 4th string was, the new 3rd string where your old 5th string was, and the new 4th string where your old 6th string was. Therefore, in gauge, you should have, from lowest to highest, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, 2nd, 1st. The purpose of doing this re-stringing with thinner gauged strings is so the EADG can each be brought up an octave. Therefore, the tuning is still EADGBe. If these instructions make no sense, this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neBMd1oP0os does a really good job of explaining it. ***How to tune/re-string your guitar 2/3 Nashville(RECOMMENDED): Grab your standard guitar. What we are trying to achieve is a higher- pitched effect, but still with some bass, and to do this, we are going to remove the 4th and 3rd strings (D and G strings), leaving the 6th, 5th, 2nd, and 1st (EABe) strings strung on the guitar. Basically, we are replacing the two middle strings with thinner ones while keeping the four outside strings where they are. Now, open a new pack of standard guitar strings. Grab the 1st (e) 2nd (B) strings and take them out of the package. String the new 1st string where your old 3rd string was and the new 2nd string where your old 4th string was. Therefore, in gauge, you should have, from lowest to highest, 6th, 5th, 2nd, 1st, 2nd, 1st. The purpose of doing this re-stringing with thinner gauged strings is so the D and G can each be brought up an octave. Therefore, the tuning is still EADGBe. This is why I call this 2/3 Nashville, because 4 of the 6 strings are in the Memphis style. If these instructions make no sense, this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neBMd1oP0os does a really good job of explaining it. ***Or, you can leave your stringing standard.

Sing along
"Someway, baby, it's part of me, apart from me."You're laying waste to Halloween
You fucked it friend,
It's on it's head,
It struck the street
You're in Milwaukee, off your feet
... and at once I knew I was not magnificent
Strayed above the highway aisle
(Jagged vacance, thick with ice)
I could see for miles, miles, miles
3rd and Lake it burnt away, the hallway
Was where we learned to celebrate
Automatic bought the years you'd talk for me
That night you played me 'Lip Parade'
Not the needle, nor the thread, the lost decree
Saying nothing, that's enough for me
... and at once I knew I was not magnificent
Hulled far from the highway aisle
(Jagged, vacance, thick with ice)
I could see for miles, miles, miles
Christmas night,
It clutched the light,
The hallow bright
Above my brother,
I and tangled spines
We smoked the screen to make
It what it was to be
Now to know it in my memory:
... and at once I knew I was not magnificent
High above the highway aisle
(Jagged vacance, thick with ice)
I could see for miles, miles, miles
