Am, G, C, Am (x2)
[Verse 1]
Am G C
Come on skinny love just last the year
Am G C
Pour a little salt we were never here
Am G C
My my my – my my my – my my my my – my my …

Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
Am G C
I tell my love to wreck it all
Am G C
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
Am G C
My my my – my my my – my my my my – my my …
Am G C
Right in the moment this order’s tall
[Chorus 1]
Am G Am C
I told you to be patient I told you to be fine
Am G Am C
I told you to be balanced I told you to be kind
Am G
In the morning I’ll be with you
Am C
But it will be a different kind
Am G
I’ll be holding all the tickets
Am C
And you’ll be owning all the fines
[Verse 2]
Am G C
Come on skinny love what happened here
Am G C
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
Am G C
My my my – my my my – my my my – my my …
Am G C
Sullen load is full so slow on the split
[Chorus 2]
Am G Am C
I told you to be patient I told you to be fine
Am G Am C
I told you to be balanced I told you to be kind
Am G Am C
Now all your love is wasted then who the hell was I?
Am G
Cause now I’m breaking at the britches
Am C
And at the end of all your lines

Who will love you? who will fight?
Am G C
And who will fall, far behind?
[Outro]

Come on skinny love ……

if you play Am, G, C. You end up playing Riptide by Vance joy.

You can also replace the G chord with the F chord--I personally like the sound of that better.

Swap all the Am's with the C's and then it sounds mostly fine
