Lyrics

Ain't (Ebmaj7)nothing like the (Fm)real (Eb)thing,

(Fm)(Eb)baby. (Abmaj7)Ain't nothing like the (Fm7)real thing.

(Eb)Ain't (Ebmaj7)nothing like the (Fm)real (Eb)thing,

(Fm)(Eb)baby. (Abmaj7)Ain't nothing like the (Fm7)real thing.

(Cm)I've (Fm7)got your (Eb)picture hangin' (Fm)on the wall,

but (Abmaj7)it can't see or (G)come to me when I (Cm7)call your name.

I (Bbm)realize it's (Ab)just a picture (Eb)in a frame.

I read your letters when (Fm)you're not (Eb)near,

but (Abmaj7)they don't move me and (G)they don't groove me like (Cm7)when I hear your sweet (Eb7)voice (Ab)whispering (Eb)of your in my ear.

Don't you know,

ain't (Ebmaj7)nothing like the (Fm)real (Eb)thing,

(Fm)(Eb)baby. (Abmaj7)Ain't nothing like the (Fm7)real thing.

I play my (Eb)game,

a (Fm)fantasy.

(Abmaj7)I pretend, but (G)I know in (Cm7)reality I (Bb7)need the shelter (Ab)of your arms to (Eb)comfort me.

No other (Gm7)sound is (G7)quite the same as your (Cm)name.

No (Eb7)touch can do half as (Ab)much

(Eb)to make me feel (C#dim)better.

(Fm7)So, let's stay together.

I've got some real thing.

(Eb)Ain't (Ebmaj7)nothing like the (Fm)real (Eb)thing,

(Fm)(Eb)baby. (Abmaj7)Ain't nothing like the (Fm7)real thing.

(Eb)Ain't (Ebmaj7)nothing like the (Fm)real (Eb)thing,

(Fm)(Eb)baby. (Abmaj7)Ain't nothing like the (Fm7)real thing.
