D#A#
It's been seven hours and fifteen days
CmD#A#
Since you took your love away
D#A#
I go out every night and sleep all day
CmD#A#
Since you took your love away
D#A#
Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want
CmD#A#
I can see whomever I choose
D#A#
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
Cm
But nothing
Gm
No, nothing can take away these blues
[Chorus]C#G#
'Cause nothing compares
CmA#
Nothing compares to you
[Verse]D#A#
It's been so lonely without you here
CmD#A#
Like a bird without a song
D#A#
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
CmD#A#
Tell us James where did I go wrong?
D#A#
I could put my arms around every girl I see
CmD#A#
But they'd only remind me of you
D#A#
I went to the doctor guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
Cm
He said boy you better try to have fun
Gm
No matter what you do
But he's a fool
[Chorus]C#G#
'Cause nothing compares
CmA#
Nothing compares to you
C#G#
Nothing compares
CmA#
Nothing compares to you
[Verse]D#
All the flowers that u planted, baby
A#
In the back yard
CmD#A#
All died when you went away
D#A#
I know that living with u baby was sometimes hard
CmGm
But I'm willing to give it another try
[Chorus]C#G#
'Cause nothing compares
CmA#
Nothing compares to you
C#G#
Nothing compares
CmA#
Nothing compares to you
[Solo]C#G#CmA#A# (2x)
[Outro] (Strum only once)
C#G#
Nothing compares
CmA#
Nothing compares to you
