[Intro] Am  C  C/G
        Am  C  C/G (Riff 1)
        Am  C  C/G (Riff 2)
        G/D  Am  C  C/G

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/D                              Am   C/G
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

[RIFF 3]

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/D                   Am
Right in the moment this order's tall

[Chorus]

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

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/D                         Am
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split

  C
I told you to be patient
  G/B            F/C
I told you to be fine
  C
I told you to be balanced

  G/B            F/C
I told you to be kind
    C
Now all your love is wasted?

     G/B              F/C
Then who the hell was I?
        C
Now I'm breaking at the britches
           G/B             F/C
And at the end of all your lines
C
Who will love you?
G/B      F/C
Who will fight?
C             G/B     F/C
Who will fall far behind?

[Outro] Am  C  C/G
        Am  C  C/G
        Am  C  C/G  G/D
        Am  C  C/G
