[Verse]

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

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


[Chorus]

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


[Verse]

Am C C/G
Come on skinny love what happened here
Am C C/G
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
Am C C/G
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
G/B Am C C/G
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split


[Chorus]

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

C G/B
Who will love you?
F/A
Who will fight?
C G/B F/A
Who will fall far behind?
