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

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
