I Can't Make You Love Me Tab

   
Great cover by Justin Vernon of Bonnie Rait's "I Can't Make You Love Me". It's played on 
piano but i really wanted to learn it (and can't play the piano very well), and it 
sounds pretty cool on guitar as well. not sure how accurate this is, but it sounds alright to me

N.B. doesnt include the little mashup bit at the end of the song where it blends into 
nick of time

Chords are as follows

1. turn down the light, turn down the bed, turn down these voices, inside my head
2. I'll close my eyes, and then I won't see, the love you don't feel, when you're 
holding me

              F*            C       E           F*  G*
You can't make your heart feel, something it won't
 A         F*       C                F
Here in the dark, in these final hours
      F*         C           E            F
I will Lay down my heart, and I'll feel the power
           G                  F
But you won't, no you won't
              F*            C               F
'Cause i cant make you love me, if you don't
