[ Nothing Takes The Place Of You von Toussaint McCall ]


Intro: Ab     Fm     Db     Eb

              Ab                Fm
I moved your pictures  from my wall
             Db                        Eb
And I'll replace them, both large and small
             Ab                Fm
And each new day  finds me so blue
 Bbm                        Eb    Eb7+5
Nothing  takes the place of you


           Ab             Fm
I read your letters  one by one
             Db                        Eb
And I still love you   when it's all said and done
          Ab             Fm
And oh my darling, I'm so blue
         Bbm         Eb                 Ab           Ab7
Because nothing, oh nothing, takes the place of you


Bridge:
Db                   Ab
As...  I write this letter
      Eb                  Ab   Ab7
It's raining on my windowpane
Db                 Fm
As...  I feel the need of you
         Bb7                          Eb7   Eb7+5
Because without you nothing seems the same


              Ab           Fm
So I'll wait  until you're home
             Db                  Eb
Again I'll love you  but I'm all alone
           Ab             Fm
And oh, my darling, I'm so blue
         Bbm             Eb                Ab
Because nothing, oh but nothing takes the place of you
