Bones – Ben Howard
 
First ever tab and I know it’s not perfect but it sounds more or less right so I’m open
to suggestions for changes :)
 
Tuning: CGCGGC
Capo 5th fret, leave the 6E string uncapped
 
 all fret numbers are relative to the capo (obviously with the exception to the low E string)
 First time he plays this:
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C|-----------2p0-----0--0--------------------------------------------------|
G|----2h4-4--0---4p0-0--0--------------------------------------------------|
C|----0---0--0---0---9--7--------------------------------------------------|
*Strum the last two chords to make it sound like the album version
 
Then he uses this variation throughout the verse:
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C|-----------2h4p2p0-----------------0--0----------------------------------|
G|----2h4-4--0-------0h4-0-2-2h4p2p0-0--0----------------------------------|
C|----0---0--0-----------0-0-0-------9--7----------------------------------|
 
Then I’m not too sure about the chorus but it goes something like this:
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
C|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----0~~~-------7---4-----------------------------------------------------|
C|----0~~~-------0---0-----------------------------------------------------|
G|----0~~~-------7---4-----------------------------------------------------|
C|----5~~~------12---9-----------------------------------------------------| x3
 
Let the first chord ring (the first time of the chorus), then strum the other two chords
and that’s pretty much the song, it just repeats throughout the song.
 
[Song Order]
[Verse 1]
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
[Chorus] x2
[Outro]
