Translation of Flume by Bon Iver

From:

I am my mother's only one
It's enough

I wear my garment so it shows
Now you know

Only love is all maroon
Gluey feathers on a flume
Sky is womb and she's the moon

I am my mother on the wall, with us all
I move in water, shore to shore;
Nothing's more

Only love is all maroon
Lapping lakes like leary loons
Leaving rope burns --
Reddish ruse

Only love is all maroon
Gluey feathers on a flume
Sky is womb and she's the moon


C Em
I am my mother's only one

G (CMaj7)
It's enough

C E
I wear my garment so it shows

G (CMaj7)
Now you know



Chorus:

F Am C
Only love is all maroon

F Am G
Gluey feathers on a flume

F Am C C
Sky is womb and she's the moon

Em Am Em

C Em
I am my mother on the wall

G (CMaj7)
with us all

C Em
I move in water, shore to shore;

G (CMaj7)
Nothing's more



Chorus:

F Am C
Only love is all maroon

F Am G
Lapping lakes like leary loons

F Am C
Leaving rope burns, Reddish ruse


Em Am Em
(song stops)
Harmonics on the B and E strings, 12th fret

Repeat Chorus

End on F
