Substitute  Frank Turner

The f[Am]irst girl that I fell for was a f[D]air and faithful fighter
She s[G]mouldered with a will to save the worl[Am]d
I d[Am]id my best to help her, yeah I s[D]tood shoulder to shoulder
On the f[G]ront lines with my visionary gir[Am]l
I w[Dm]ish that she had cared for me
But in the e[G]nd her ideologies
O[C]ccupied the f[C/B]ortress of her h[Am]eart
I wrote her [Dm]15 songs, but still we had to part[G]
And if m[F]usic was the f[Fm]ood of love
Then I'd [C]be a f[C/B]at rom[Am]antic slo[G]b
Well m[F]usic, it's my su[Fm]bstitute for l[C]ove
The l[Am]ast girl that I loved she was a l[D]ow and lusty liar
She s[G]et my heart on fire, but made me cho[Am]ke
Her b[Am]eauty was a sight to see, but she didn'[D]t save it all for me
I found o[G]ther fires by following the s[Am]moke
I w[Dm]ish that she had either cared for [G]me or
let be me
But she c[C]hased me from m[C/B]ind and from my h[Am]ome
I wrote her 1[Dm]6 songs, but I ended up al[G]one
And if l[F]ove is really a[Fm]ll that we need
Then e[C]ven all my si[C/B]nging is n[Am]ever gonna s[G]ave me
Mu[F]sic it's my su[Fm]bstitute for lo[C]ve
Well I've had m[Am]any different g[G]irls inside my b[C]ed
But o[Am]nly one or t[G]wo inside my h[F]ead
These days I cu[Dm]ddle up to [Cadd9]my guitar ins[G]tead
But o[F]h, what I would g[Fm]ive, not to st[C]umble but to r[C/B]eally fall in l[Am]ove
And I could su[F]bstitute my singing for the s[G]ound of someone sleeping next to
[C]me
