[Verse]
Am              C
Come on skinny love just last the year
Am             C
Pour a little salt we were never here
        Am          C
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
               D6sus2                       Am    Fmaj7/C
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

Am        C
I tell my love to wreck it all
Am              C
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
        Am          C
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
             D6sus2                   Am
Right in the moment this order's tall

[Chorus]
  C
I told you to be patient
  C/B            F
I told you to be fine
  C
I told you to be balanced
  G            F
I told you to be kind
       C
In the morning I'll be with you
            C/B         F
But it will be a different "kind"
        C
I'll be holding all the tickets
              C/B           F
And you'll be owning all the fines

[Verse]
Am              C
Come on skinny love what happened here
Am            C
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
        Am          C
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
               D6sus2                 Am    Fmaj7/C
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split

[Chorus]
  C
I told you to be patient
  C/B            F
I told you to be fine
  C
I told you to be balanced
  G            F
I told you to be kind 
       C
Now all your love is wasted?
            C/B            F
Then who the hell was I?
        C
Now I'm breaking at the bridges
              C/B          F
And at the end of all your lines

[Outro]
C
Who will love you?
C/B        F
Who will fight?
C           C/B       F
Who will fall far behind?

[Coda]
Am   C
Am   C
Am   C
D6sus2    Am   
C
