Verse 1:
                                     
All  of  these  lines  across  my  face

                  
Tell  you  The  Story  of  who  I  am

             
So  many  stories  of  where  I've  been

               
And  how  I  got  to  where  I  am

                                     
But  these  stories  don't  mean  anything

                              
when  you've  got  no-one  to  tell  them  to

        
It's  true

                    
I  was  made  for  you


2v

               
I  climbed  across  the  mountain  top

              Dm (harder strum)
swam  all  across  the  ocean  blue

                      
I crossed  all  the  lines and-I  broke  all  the  rules

          
Baby  I   broke  them  all  for  you

                                   
Because  even  when  I  was  flat  broke

                          
You  made  me  feel  like a  million  bucks

     
You  do

                   
I  was  made  for  you

Last Verse - finger pick or light strum


                 
You  see  the  smile  that's  on   my   mouth

                    
It's  hiding  the  words  that  don't  come  out

                
All  of  our  friends  who  think   that i'm blessed

               
They don't  know  my  head  is a mess

                           
No  they  don't  know  who  I  really  am

                              
And  they  don't   know  what  I've  been   through

             
Like  You  Do...

                      
And I  was  made  for  you

(final - big and full strum pattern add soul)

                  
All  of  these  lines  across  my  face

                  
Tell  you  the  story  of  who  I  am

              
So  many  stories  of  where  i've  been

              
And  how  I  got  to  where  I  am

                              
No  they  don't  know  who  I  really  am

                             
And  they  don't  know  what  I've  been   through

            
Like  You  do

                         
And  I  was  made  for  you...
