Verse 1:
                  G                   G
All  of  these  lines  across  my  face

                  Dm
Tell  you  The  Story  of  who  I  am

             Em
So  many  stories  of  where  I've  been

               Cadd9
And  how  I  got  to  where  I  am

                G                     D
But  these  stories  don't  mean  anything

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

        G
It's  true

 D                   G
I  was  made  for  you


2v

               G
I  climbed  across  the  mountain  top

              Dm (harder strum)
swam  all  across  the  ocean  blue

                      Em
I crossed  all  the  lines and-I  broke  all  the  rules
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/brandi_carlile/story_crd_ver_6.html ]
          Cadd9
Baby  I   broke  them  all  for  you

         G                          D
Because  even  when  I  was  flat  broke

    Em                      C
You  made  me  feel  like a  million  bucks

     G
You  do

          D         G
I  was  made  for  you


Instrumental - strumming changes to a more soul rhythm

First time through full count each
(G / Dm / Em / Cadd9)

Second time through half time - notice note changes)
(G / D / Em / C / G / D / G...)

Last Verse - finger pick or light strum


                 G
You  see  the  smile  that's  on   my   mouth

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

                Em
All  of  our  friends  who  think   that i'm blessed

               Cadd9
They don't  know  my  head  is a mess

     G                      D
No  they  don't  know  who  I  really  am

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

             G
Like  You  Do...

    D                  G
And I  was  made  for  you

(final - big and full strum pattern add soul)

                  G
All  of  these  lines  across  my  face

                  Dm
Tell  you  the  story  of  who  I  am

              Em
So  many  stories  of  where  i've  been

              Cadd9
And  how  I  got  to  where  I  am

             G                 D
No  they  don't  know  who  I  really  am

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

            G
Like  You  do

     D                    G
And  I  was  made  for  you...
