[Verse 1]
[C] [G]
It's been seven hours and fifteen days
[Am] [C] [G]
since you took your love away
[C] [G]
I go out every night and sleep all day
[Am] [C] [G]
since you took your love away
[C] [G]
since you’ve been gone I can do whatever I want
[Am] [C] [G]
I can see whoever I choose
[C] [G] [Am]
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant-but nothing
[E]
I said nothing can take away these blues,
[Chorus]
[Bb] [F]
'cause nothing compares
[Bb] [F] [G]
nothing compares to you
[Verse 2]
[C] [G]
It's been so lonely without you here
[Am] [C] [G]
like a bird without a song
[C] [G]
nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
[Am] [F]
tell me baby, oh where did I go wrong?
[C] [G]
I could put my arms around every girl I see
[Am] [C] [G]
but they’d only remind me of you
[C] [G]
So I went to the doctor guess what he told me
[Am]
he said boy you better try to have fun
[E]
no matter what you do, but he’s a fool
[Chorus]
[Bb] [F]
'cause nothing compares
[Bb] [F] [G]
nothing compares to you
[Instrumental]
[C] [G] [Am] [C] [G]
[Verse 3]
[C] [G]
All the flowers that you planted momma
in the backyard
[Am] [C] [G]
all died when you went
[C] [G]
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
[Am] [E]
but I'm willing to give it another try
[Chorus]
[Bb] [F]
'cause nothing compares
[Bb] [F] [G]
nothing compares to you
[Bb] [F]
'cause nothing compares
[Bb] [F] [G]
nothing compares to you
[Bb] [F]
'cause nothing compares
[Bb] [F] [G]
nothing compares to you
