Bm        G                D              A            Bm
I wasn't put here on this earth to work like I do all week
         G                  D              A                  Bm
I don't live to punch that clock and come home and eat and sleep
       G             D
I was made for something more
           A              G            Em
And God's made it pretty clear, I'm only here

Chorus
    Bm    G          D       A
For one thing and one thing only
Bm      G         D            A
To love you and keep you from ever getting lonely
Bm          G                 D
To be your rock that never rolls
             A                Bm
To hold your body, touch your soul
     A               G
And fill your every need,
Em         A           Bm
I'm only here for one thing


(Intro Riff)


Bm       G                      D
How many men walk through this life
      A         Bm       G              D
And never even know the reason they're alive
         A                Bm              G            D
Oh, And then it's time to go but I don't ever have to wonder
         A                G             Em
'Cause, baby, when you're near, I know I'm here


Chorus
     Bm      G       D       A
For one thing and one thing only
Bm       G          D           A
To love you and keep you from ever getting lonely
Bm          G                  D
To be your rock that never rolls
              A                Bm
To hold your body, touch your soul
     A          G          Em       A             Bm
And fill your every need, I'm only here for one thing

I'm only here...for one thing
