Intro: C#m A | E Emaj |
       C#m A | E E Emaj E

C#m              A
Come on skinny love,
              E     Emaj E
Just last the year,
C#m             A
Pour a little salt,
              E     Emaj
We were never here.
E      C#m       A
My-my-my, my-my-my,
             E
My-my-my-my-my,
               F#m7          
Staring at the sink of blood
              C#m
And crushed veneer.

C#m     A
Tell my love
            E    Eadd9 G#m   
To wreck it all,
C#m             A
Cut out all the ropes
           E
And let me fall.
G#m7    C#m     A
My-my-my, my-my-my,
            E
My-my-my-my-my,
             F#m7       
Right in the moment
              C#m
This order’s tall.

C#m    E
And I told you to be patient,
      G#m7           C#m
And I told you to be fine,
       E
And I told you to be balanced,
      G#m7           C#m
And I told you to be kind.

C#m        E
And in the morning I’ll be with you,
            G#m7           C#m
But it will be a different kind.
               E
‘Cause I’ll be holding all the tickets
              G#m7           C#m
And you’ll be owning all the fines.

Instrumental: C#m C#m C#m C#madd11 | C#m

C#m            A
Come on skinny love,
              E     Eadd9 G#m   
What happened here?
C#m           A
Suckle on the hope
            E
In lite brassiere.
G#m7    C#m     A
My-my-my, my-my-my,
            E
My-my-my-my-my,
       F#m7        
Sullen load is full,
               C#m
So slow on the split.

C#m    E
And I told you to be patient,
      G#m7           C#m
And I told you to be fine,
       E
And I told you to be balanced,
      G#m7           C#m
And I told you to be kind.

C#m     E
And now all your love is wasted,
     G#m7             C#m
Then who the hell was I?
               E
‘Cause now I’m breaking at the britches
           G#m7             C#m
And at the ends of all your lines.

Instrumental: C#m C#m C#m C#madd11 | C#m

 E
   Who will love you?
 G#m7       C#m    C#madd11
   Who will fight?
 E                  G#m7    C#m
   And who will fall far behind?

Instrumental: C#m | C#m

C#m            A E G#m7   
Come on skinny love.

Instrumental: C#m A | E E E G#m7

G#m7    C#m     A
My-my-my, my-my-my,
            E
My-my-my-my-my,
G#m7    C#m     A
My-my-my, my-my-my,
            E   Badd11   
My-my-my-my-my.
