Am D
The first girl that I fell for was a fair and faithful fighter
G Am
She smouldered with a will to save the world
Am D
I did my best to help her, yeah I stood shoulder to shoulder
G Am
On the front lines with my visionary girl
Dm
I wish that she had cared for me
G
But in the end her ideologies
C C Am
Occupied the fortress of her heart
Dm G
I wrote her 15 songs, but still we had to part
F Fm
And if music was the food of love
C C Am G
Then I'd be a fat romantic slob
F Fm C
Well music, it's my substitute for love
Am D
The last girl that I loved she was a low and lusty liar
G Am
She set my heart on fire, but made me choke
Am D
Her beauty was a sight to see, but she didn't save it all for me
G Am
I found other fires by following the smoke
Dm G
I wish that she had either cared for me or
let be me
C C Am
But she chased me from mind and from my home
Dm G
I wrote her 16 songs, but I ended up alone
F Fm
And if love is really all that we need
C C Am G
Then even all my singing is never gonna save me
F Fm C
Music it's my substitute for love
Am G C
Well I've had many different girls inside my bed
Am G F
But only one or two inside my head
Dm Cadd9 G
These days I cuddle up to my guitar instead
F Fm C C Am
But oh, what I would give, not to stumble but to really fall in love
F G
And I could substitute my singing for the sound
C
of someone sleeping next to me
