Substitute

1. Sam

You've been waiting much too long now

It looks like she's not coming home

Sam

You've been loyal

True and faithful

All this time with being alone.

If I could get that same dedication

I'd give you everything in creation

B7

If she doesn't come back...

R: I'll be your substitute

Whenever you want me (oo-hoo)

Don't you know I'll be your substitute

Whenever you need me

2. Sam,

every day you waited for her

I've been waiting here for you

Sam,

all this time

I've been lonely

I know what you've been going through

I'll wait until my chances occur

Cause you can't keep relying on her

If she doesn't come back

R:

Each day by your window you sit and sigh

Hoping to see her face

Oh, you might as well forget about her

And find someone to take her place

(If she doesn't come back...)

R:
