Frank Turner  - Substitute Lyrics chords
Start Jamming...
The first girl that I fell for was [D] a fair and faithful fighter
[G] She smouldered with a will to save [Am] the world
I did my best to help her, yet [D] I stood shoulder to shoulder
On [G] the front lines with my visionary [Am] girl
[Dm] I wish that she had cared for me, [G] but in the end her ideologies
[C]
Occupied [Bm] the fortress of [Am] her heart
I wrote [Dm] her fifteen songs, but still we had [G] to part
[F] And if music [Fm] was the food of love
Then [C] I'd be [Bm] a fat [Em] romantic slob
[F]
Music, well it's my substitute [C] for love
[Am] The last girl that I loved, she was [D] a low and lusty liar
[G] She set my heart on fire, but made [Am] me choke
Her beauty was a sight to see, [D] but she didn't save it all for me
I [G] found other fires, but following [Am] the smoke
[Dm] I wish that she had either cared [G] for me or let me be
But [C] she chased me from my mind and from [Am] my home
I wrote [Dm] her sixteen songs, but I ended up [G] alone
[F] And if love is really [Fm] all that we need
[C] Then even all [Bm] my singing [Em] is never gonna save me
[F]
Music, well it's my substitute [C] for love
Well [Am] I've had many different [G] girls [F] inside my [C] bed
[Am] But only one or [C] two inside [F] my head
[Em] These days [Dm] I cuddle up to my [G] guitar instead
[Em] But [F] oh, what I would [Fm] give
[C] Not to stumble, but to really [Am] fall in love
And [F] I could substitute my singing [G] for the sound of someone sleeping [C]
next to me
