Michicant by Bon Iver
Capo on 8th fret
Chords (relative to capo)
 
Fmaj7   x03210 (really Fmaj7/A)
Am7     x02010
Cmaj9   x20010 (really Cmaj9/B)
Fmaj9   133010 (really Fmaj7sus2 - this chord is awkward, but the low note
                                 can be played by wrapping your thumb around)
                                 Alternate picking between root note and 5th
 
 
Fmaj7                   Am7          Cmaj9   Fmaj9
I was unafraid, I was a boy, I was a tender age
Fmaj7                      Am7               Cmaj9     Fmaj9
Melic in the naked, knew a lake and drew the lofts for page
Fmaj7                       Am7            Cmaj9       Fmaj9
Hurdle all the waitings up, know it wasn't wedded love why
Fmaj7                         Am7       Cmaj9  Fmaj9
4 long minutes end and it was over it'd all be back
        Cmaj9
And the frost took up the eyes 
 
Fmaj7                                  Am7                 Cmaj9  Fmaj9
Pressed against the pane could see the veins and there was poison out
Fmaj7                       Am7             Cmaj9      Fmaj9
Resting in a raze the inner claims I hadn't breadth to shake
Fmaj7                         Am7           Cmaj9       Fmaj9
Searching for an inner clout, may not take another bout why
Fmaj7                            Am7             Cmaj9     Fmaj9
Honey in the hale could fill the pales of loving less with vain
        Cmaj9                      Fmaj7
Hon, it wasn't yet the spring
 
Fmaj7                          Am7              Cmaj9      Fmaj9
Aiming and it sunk and we were drunk and we had fleshed it out
Fmaj7                            Am7             Cmaj9    Fmaj9
Nose up in the globes, you never know if you are passing out
Fmaj7                       Am7            Cmaj9      Fmaj9
No it wasn't maiden-up, the falling or the faded luck why hoo
Fmaj7                           Am7            Cmaj9 Fmaj9
Hung up in the ivory, both were climbing for a finer cause
         Cmaj9
Love can hardly leave the room
          Fmaj7   Am7  Cmaj9  Fmaj9
With your heart

Spot on i'd say intro is: |----1--| |-2h4-4-| |-------| |-------| |-------| |-------|

I tune the B string up a half step since all of the chords have that 1 on the B string. Rings out pretty nicely.

I like playing this with the capo on the 7th fret, I recommend it :)
