I'll be very honest, I don't really know how either of the two versions sound like in its entirety.
I've listened to them both, just not extensively since I first learned this song through a friend, and subsequently, made a cover of it haha (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifZvkdKzIXA)
This is my interpretation of the song, I've made slight changes in the song lyrics (I don't know.. my version, my rules hah!)
I also know that I don't have a great voice or guitar skills, hey I'm not perfect oh well ;P
Nonetheless enjoy!
Lyrics:
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 at the moment this order's tall
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And in the morning, I'll be with you
But it will be a different kind
'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets
And you'll be owning all the fines (changed to "of mine")
Come on skinny love, what happened here?
Suckle on the hope in light (changed to love's) brassiere
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And now all your love is wasted
Then who the hell was I?
'Cause now I'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines
Who will love you (changed to 'me')?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?
