C G G
(each 1 down strum)

[Chorus 1]
C
I'm only a stand in
                  G
After all's said 'n done
             D
I fought for your love
D7               G
 I thought I had won

[Chorus 2]
C
But I'm only a stand in
        G
For somebody else
               D
What a dreamer I've been
D7        G            C  G
 I'm just standing in

[Verse]
G
I wondered, if you know dear?
          C            G
That when you're in my arms
D                                     G     D7
Sometimes the name you whisper, isn't mine
     G
I've tried not to believe it
    C             G
But in my heart I know
          C      G         D       G
I've only been a stand in, all the time

G    C
 I'm only a stand in
                  G
After all's said 'n done
             D
I fought for your love
D7               G
 I thought I had won

[Chorus 3]
C
But I'm only a stand in
        G
For somebody else
G
I thought I could win
               D
What a dreamer I've been

I'm just standing in
