Yuki Onna chords by Adrianne Lenker

Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 2nd

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Key: D MajorD

Difficulty: Novice

Performance notes:

Capo 2

Key: C majorC + 2 = D MajorD major

I feel the song in a very slow 2/4, quarter = 44.

This is for the most part a very simple and slow strumming song, but Buck does play with some melodic
stepwise stuff as he moves between chords. I wrote out some of these as chords, but there are more; for
instance, hammer on 0h2 on the fourth string when moving from E minorEm to FF in the chorus, and play the bass F#F#
when moving from G+G to F. Note also that he's playing more on the lower strings than the higher ones.

Verse 1:
C majorC          E minorEm
  Follow me to the wood
       FF
Through the dew fields and the bog
    G+G             C majorC   Csus2Csus2
I'll show you what I saw last November
  E minorEm                  FF
As autumn's curtain closed something opened
     G+G
Something old
C majorC           E minorEm
  No one seems to believe
     FF
In the stories that I tell
   G+G
So I keep them to myself
    C majorC  E minorEm        FF
But you see shadows too my friend
   G+G   G#5G#5
My friend

Chorus:
A minorAm       FF
  Something is watching us
C majorC       G+G
  From behind
FF        C majorC      G+G
  An eye that cannot close
FF      C majorC    E MajorE     FF
  Until the morning blinds and burns
FF     F minorFm      C majorC   Csus2Csus2
  We are hers, we are hers


Verse 2:
C majorC        E minorEm     FF    G+G
  In an evening gown of grey blooms
     C majorC
Rose the witch
   E minorEm
The bitch
      FF   G+G
The wicked worm
C majorC        E minorEm         FF
 With one cold kiss from her black lips
   G+G       C majorC Csus2Csus2
We froze, we froze


Instrumental:

A minorAm       FF

  An eye that cannot close
FF      C majorC    E MajorE     FF
  Until the morning blinds and burns
FF     F minorFm      C majorC   Csus2Csus2  C majorC
  We are hers, we are hers
