[C#m] [A] [E] [x2]
 
[Verse]
 
[C#m]Come on skinny l[A]love just last the ye[E]year
[C#m]Pour a little sa[A]salt we were never her[E]here
My my my[C#m] - my my my[A] - my my my my - my my[E] ...
Staring at the [F#m]sink of blood and crushed v[C#m]veneer
 
[C#m]I tell my l[A]love to wreck it a[E]all
[C#m]Cut out all the r[A]ropes and let me f[E]fall
My my my[C#m] - my my my[A] - my my my my - my my[E] ...
Right in the [F#m]moment this order's [C#m]tall
 
 
[Chorus]
 
I [E]told you to be patient I [G#m]told you to be [C#m]fine
I [E]told you to be balanced I[G#m]I told you to be[C#m]be kind
In the mo[E]morning I'll be with you
But it will [G#m]be a different [C#m]kind
I'll be ho[E]holding all the tickets
And you'll be o[G#m]owning all the f[C#m]fines
 
 
[Verse]
 
[C#m]Come on skinny [A]love what happened [E]here
[C#m]Suckle on the h[A]hope in lite brassie[E]brassiere
My my my[C#m] - my my my[A] - my my my - my my[E] ...
Sullen l[F#m]load is full so slow on the s[C#m]split
 
 
[Chorus]
 
I t[E]old you to be patient I t[G#m]old you to be f[C#m]ine
I t[E]told you to be balanced I [G#m]told you to be [C#m]kind
Now a[E]all your love is wasted then [G#m]who the hell was[C#m]was I?
Cause now I'm br[E]breaking at the britches
And at the [G#m]end of all your l[C#m]lines
 
 
[Bridge]
 
[E]Who will love you? [G#m]who will f[C#m]fight?
[E]And who will fall, [G#m]far beh[C#m]behind?
