Skinny Love Chords

Notes:
This slight variation makes it sound similar to the mix of low and high tones
in Bon Iver's version, when it is tuned down to C.
 
Only four chords:
Em7    022033
Cadd9  x32033 (or x32030, or x32003 - gives nice variation to mix between these three)
G      320033 (with same variations on B and e string as the Cadd9)
D/F#   200233
 
Between the chords G and Em, you could to add one strum of:
G/F#  200033
 
In the chorus, as a little extra:
Em7                  Cadd9               G  (2 strums, then slide to xxx055 and back down to G)
Come on skinny love just last the year
 
 
 
[Verse 1]
Em7            Cadd9               G       (G/F#)
Come on skinny love just last the year
Em7           Cadd9               G
Pour a little salt, we were never here
        Em7        Cadd9            G
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
               D/F#                      Em7
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
Em7     Cadd9            G
Tell my love to wreck it all
Em7             Cadd9            G
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
        Em7         Cadd9           G
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
              D/F#                Em7
Right in this moment this order's tall
 
 
[Chorus 1]
      G
And I told you to be patient
      D/F#           Cadd9
And I told you to be fine
      G
And I told you to be balanced
      D/F#           Cadd9
And I told you to be kind
       G
In the morning I'll be with you
           D/F#            Cadd9
But it will be a different kind
        G
I'll be holding all the tickets
              D/F#            Cadd9   (trail out, strumming GBe strings)
And you'll be owning all the fines
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em7            Cadd9               G
Come on skinny love, what happened here?
Em7               Cadd9        G
We suckled on the hope in lite brassieres
        Em7         Cadd9           G
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
       D/F#                         Em7
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
 
 
[Chorus 2]
      G
And I told you to be patient
      D/F#           Cadd9
And I told you to be fine
      G
And I told you to be balanced
      D/F#           Cadd9
And I told you to be kind
        G
And now all your love is wasted
         D/F#             Cadd9
And then who the hell was I?
        G
And I'm breaking at the britches
           D/F#            Cadd9
And at the end of all your lines
 
 
[Verse 3]
G                   D/F#
Who will love you?
Em7      C         G/F# (bass notes only, one strum)
Who will fight?
G        D/F#    Em7    Cadd9  (trail out again, hammering 0-3 on e string)
Who will fall... far    behind?
 
Em7            Cadd9              G       (G/F#)
Come on skinny love just last the year
Em7           Cadd9               G
Pour a little salt, we were never here
        Em7        Cadd9            G     G/F#
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
        Em7        Cadd9            G
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
