[Verse 1]

Am             F                   C
Come on skinny love, just last the year
Am             F                    C
Pour a little salt, we were never here
        Am        F                     C
My my my - my my my - my my my my - my my ...
               Dm                        Am
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
Am        F                C
I tell my love to wreck it all
Am              F                C
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
        Am        F                    C
My my my - my my my - my my my my my
             Dm                 Am
Right in the moment this order's tall
 

[Chorus]

  C                         Em            Am
I told you to be patient, I told you to be fine
  C                          Em            Am
I told you to be balanced, I told you to be kind
         C
In the morning I'll be with you
            Em              Am
But it will be a different kind
          C
I'll be holding all the tickets
               Em            Am
And you'll be owning all the fines
 
[Verse 2]

Am            F                  C
Come on skinny love, what happened here
Am            F                  C
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
        Am        F                  C
My my my - my my my - my my my - my my ...
        Dm                          Am
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
 
[Chorus]

   C                         Em           Am
I told you to be patient, I told you to be fine
   C                         Em            Am
I told you to be balanced, I told you to be kind
     C                            Em             Am
Now all your love is wasted, then who the hell was I?
                C
Cause now I'm breaking at the britches
           Em              Am
And at the end of all your lines
 
[Bridge]

C                  Em         Am
Who will love you? Who will fight?
C                  Em      Am
And who will fall, far behind?
Am             F           C
Come on skinny love ........
        Am        F                     C
My my my - my my my - my my my - my my ...
        Am        F                     C
My my my - my my my - my my my - my my ...
