Skinny Love Tab

by Bon Iver


This song is normally played with the guitar tuned in C, which is a bit of a hassle. So 
worked out a very simple version in standard tuning.
Unfortunately it doesn't fit playing along with song but for just singing along to it's 
Enjoy!

Intro
  x 3  

verse
              
Come on skinny love just last the year
             
Pour a little salt we were never here
                  
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
                                         
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
        
I tell my love to wreck it all
              
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
                  
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
                                 ...
Right in the moment this order's tall

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

verse

              
Come on skinny love what happened here
            
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
                  
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
                                    
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split

Chorus
  
I told you to be patient
               
I told you to be fine
  
I told you to be balanced
                
I told you to be kind
    
Now all your love is wasted?
                     
Then who the hell was I?
        
Now I'm breaking at the britches
                          
And at the end of all your lines

Who will love you?
         
Who will fight?
                    
Who will fall far behind?
