It's been seven hours and fifteen days
D#m F# C#
Since you took your love away

I go out every night and sleep all day
D#m F# C#
Since you took your love away

Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want

I can see whomever I choose

I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant

But nothing

No, nothing can take away these blues

Nothing compares to you
[Verse]

It's been so lonely without you here
D#m F# C#
Like a bird without a song
F# C#
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
D#m F# C#
Tell us James where did I go wrong?
F# C#
I could put my arms around every girl I see
D#m F# C#
But they'd only remind me of you

I went to the doctor guess what he told me
Guess what he told me

He said boy you better try to have fun

No matter what you do
But he's a fool
[Chorus]

'Cause nothing compares

Nothing compares

Nothing compares to you
