Aint nothing like the real thing

E B/E F#m/E E F#m/E E Amaj7 F#m7 Ain't nothing like the real thing, ba-by. Ain't nothing like the real thing. Ain't nothing like the real thing, ba-by. Ain't nothing like the real thing. E9 E F#m7 E/G# A Absus Ab I got your picture hanging on my wall but it can't sing, or come to me - C#m Bm7 Amaj7 A E when I call your name. I realized it's just a picture in a frame. E F#m7 E/G# A I read your letters but you're not here. They don't move me, Absus Ab C#m Bm7 Amaj7 A E they don't prove it like when I hear your sweet voice whispering in my ear. E F#m7 E/G# A Absus Ab C#m I play my games of fan-ta-sy. I've been down. I don't see reality. Bm7 Amaj7 A E I need the shelter of your arms to comfort me E F#m7 E/G# A Absus Ab I got some memories to look back on, though they help me when you're gone C#m Bm7 Amaj7 A E I'm well aware nothing can take the place of you being there. Abm Ab/C C#m No other sound - is quite the same as your name. E7/B Amaj7 E/B C#m7 E/F# No touch can do half as much - to make me feel better. F#9 A/B B A/B B A/B B A/B B Let's stay together. Ah, ah. Ooh. E B/E F#m/E E F#m/E E Amaj7 F#m7 Ain't nothing like the real thing, ba-by. Ain't nothing like the real thing. So glad we got the real thing, ba-by. So glad we got the real thing. .
