Verse 1:

D                         Gm              C9
 I was born in Lil' Rock, had a childhood sweetheart;
Bb              C       D
 We were always hand in hand.
D                                     Gm              C9
 I was hightop shoes and shirt tails, Suzy was in pig tails;
Bb        C              D
 I know I loved her even then.
            D                       Gm       C9
You know my papa disapproved it, my mama boo-hooed it,
Bb               C                D
 But I told them time and time, a-gain;

Chorus 1:

                       D
"Don't you know, I was made to love her?
        Gm          C9               Bb   C    D
Built a world all a-round her", yah! Hey, hey, hey.

Verse 2:

      D                    Gm             C9
She's been my inspiration, showed appreci-ation,
Bb              C                    D
 For the love I gave her through the years.
       D                            Gm              C9
Like a sweet magnolia tree, my love blossmed tender-ly.
Bb            C                   D
 My life grew sweeter through the years.
            D                    Gm   C9
I know that my baby loves me, my baby needs me,
Bb             C                   D
 That's why we made it through the years.

Chorus 2:

      D                     Gm         C9        Bb   C    D

 All through thick and thin, our love just won't end.
'Cos I love my baby, love my baby... aah!

   D                 Gm   C9
My baby loves me, my baby needs me,

And I know I ain't going no-where.
           D                            Gm       C9
I was knee high to a chicken, when that love bug bit me,
Bb         C                  D
 I had the fever with each pa-ssing year.
                D                         Gm          C9
Oh, even if the mountain tumbles, if this whole world crumbles,
Bb                 C                 D
 By her side, I'll still be standing there.

           D                       Gm           C9       Bb C  D
'Cos I was made to love her, I was made to live for her, ye-ea-ah!

Ah, I was made to love her, built my world all a-round her, hey, hey, hey.

You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no, hey, hey, hey.

Ooh wee baby, my baby loves me, my baby needs me, hey, hey, hey...
