[Verse 1]
D             G                D
You think we look pretty good together
D             G                D
You think my shoes are made of leather


[Pre-chorus 1]
          Em  G  D   Em   G       D
But I'm a substitute for another guy
   Em  G       D   Em      G         D
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
     Em     G          D      Em   G    D
The simple things you see are all complicated
   Em  G       D    Em       G         D     A
I look pretty young but I'm just back dated yeah


[Chorus 1]
D     A    G        D
Subsitute lies for fact
       D         A            G       D
I can see right through your plastic mack
   D        A            G       D
I look all white but my dad was black
    D            A             G           D
My fine looking suit's really made out of sack


[Verse 2]
D                  G               D
I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
     D                     G                           G
The north side of my town faced east and the east was facin' south


[Pre-chorus 2]
             Em  G   D   Em G      D
And now you dare to look me in the eye
       Em  G     D    Em   G       D
These crocodile tears are what you cry
       Em  G   D       Em  G      D
It's a genuine problem you won't try
   Em       G      D        Em  G  D          A
To work it out at all just pass it by pass it by


[Chorus 2]
D      A   G       D
Substitute me for him
D      A       G       D
Substitute my coke for gin
D      A       G       D
Substitute you for my mum
    D         A       G       D
At least I'll get my washin' done


Then for the solo I just play the verse a few times


[Pre-chorus 1]
          Em  G  D   Em   G       D
But I'm a substitute for another guy
   Em  G       D   Em      G         D
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
     Em     G          D      Em   G    D
The simple things you see are all complicated
   Em  G       D    Em       G         D     A
I look pretty young but I'm just back dated yeah
