             A                                  E
All of these lines across my face, tell you the story of who I am
        F#m                                   Asus4
So many stories of where I've been, and how I got to where I am
          A                  E                     F#m           Asus4
But these stories don't mean anything, when you've got no one to tell them to
     A     E              A   Asus4(2 strums) A(one strum)
It's true, I was made for you

            A                                  E
I climbed across the mountain tops, swam all across the ocean blue
                  F#m                                        Asus4
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules and baby I broke them all for you
           A            E                  F#m                Asus4
Oh because even when I was flat broke, you made me feel like a million bucks
  A     E              A   Asus4(2 strums) A(one strum)
You do, I was made for you

You see the smile that's on my mouth it's hidin' the words that don't come out
             F#m                                           Asus4
All of the friends who think that I'm blessed, they don't know my head is a mess
   A                   E               F#m                  Asus4
No they don't know who I really am and they don't know what I've been through
        A       E              A   Asus4(2 strums) A(one strum)
