[Intro] G [Verse 1]
          G                             Em
After the first stars formed, after the dinos fell

          C                            Dadd4add9
After the first light flickered out of this motel

G          Em
1991 momma pushing like hell

C                    Dadd4add9
Tangled in blood and vine

        G                 Em
From my first steps to my first words

   C              Dadd4add9
To walking around looking at birds

       G                  Em
To the teenage nightmare, mine and yours

C                    Dadd4add9
Thank God we made it through
[Chorus]
             G               C
'Cause I was born for loving you

          G                       C
It's just something I was made to do

        Am                      C
Doesn't matter what dreams come true

      G        C
I was born for loving you
[Verse 2]
G               Em
Now we're here, but where is here?

     C                 Dadd4add9
When sometimes we both disappear

G                Em
Into that shadow box of fear

C               Dadd4add9
That tiny-holed abyss

         G                 Em
From the first kiss to the first fuck

C                  Dadd4add9
I don't think it's just good luck

G                           Em
Take me to the back of your pick-up truck

C                  Dadd4add9
Show me a thing or two
[Chorus]
             G               C
'Cause I was born for loving you

          G                       C
It's just something I was made to do

        Am                      C
Doesn't matter what dreams come true

      G        C
I was born for loving you
[Interlude] G C G C Am C G C [Verse 3]
         G                       Em
When the hard times come and the hard times stay

          C                Dadd4add9
When they stick around and won't go away

        G                                  Em
When it seems there's nothing you can do or say

C               Dadd4add9
Nowhere you can turn

         G                 Em
From the last breath of my first death

        C            Dadd4add9
To this lifetime and lifetimes left

G                Em            C
Congratulations, no regrets

     Dadd4add9
It's true
[Chorus]
      G               C
I was born for loving you

          G                       C
It's just something I was made to do

        Am                      C
Doesn't matter what dreams come true

      G               C
I was born for loving you

      G               C
I was born for loving you

          G                       C
It's just something I was made to do

        Am                      C
Doesn't matter what dreams come true

      G               C
I was born for loving you

      G               C
I was born for loving you

      G               C
I was born for loving you

      G               C
I was born for loving you

      G               C
I was born for loving you
