The Story

Brandi Carlile

12

[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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

I climbed across the mountaintops

Swam all across the ocean blue

I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules

But baby, I broke them all for you

[Chorus]

Oh, because even when I was flat broke

You made me feel like a million bucks, you do

I was made for you

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

You see the smile that's on my mouth

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

And all of our friends who think that I'm blessed

They don't know my head is a mess

[Chorus]

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

[Breakdown]

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

[Chorus]

Oh, 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

[Outro]

Oh yeah, well, it's true

That I was made for you
