Biography:
Bon Iver is a Grammy Award winning folk band from Eau Claire, Wisconsin, United States, and one of Justin Vernon's current and most notable music projects to date. The band also consists of Mike Noyce, Sean Carey and Matt MacCaughan.
The name 'Bon Iver' (pronounced "bon ee-VAIR") is a play on the French phrase 'bon hiver' meaning 'good winter'. Vernon independently released Bon Iver's debut album For Emma, Forever Ago in 2007, most of which was recorded during a four-month stay in a remote cabin in Wisconsin.

[Verse 1]
Ab
Well your daddy's steering down
Cm
Your driveway in the rain
Fm
And your mom's hair is in a bun
Db
And it's your graduation day
Ab
And your flask is hidden in your sock
Fm
You were always proud
Db
To show your moxie, babe
[Verse 2]
Ab
Well the rain is clearing up
Cm
And the baseball field is dry
Fm
And the chairs are in their rows
Db
And some moms' eyes they start to cry
Ab
And is this my fleeting chance?
Cm Fm Db
And I wonder as I gasp at all the faces made
[Chorus]
Eb Fm Db
Norma Jean, show me what you drink
Eb Fm Db
For fifteen years I've wondered if you know what I think
Eb Fm Ab Db
Every year another mansion goes up on the lake
Eb Db
And my heart it always breaks
Eb Db
And I keep filling up with just this one thing to say
[Verse 3]
Ab
And I'm starting to remember
Cm
Every summer day
Fm
That long night out at Charlie's
Db
And that time when we tried cocaine
Ab
Well my heart has murmured long enough
Cm Fm Db
It is time to show you that I'm tougher, babe
[Chorus]
Eb Fm Db
Norma Jean, what'd you have to drink?
Eb Fm Eb Db
For fifteen years we grew up, just around from the ice rink
Eb Fm
Now I'm watching you from across the room
Ab Db
Sleeping on your cap and gown
Ab Db
Only to chase away the doubt
Eb Fm Db
And Norma, in my dreams we are the champions of this town
[Outro]
