(Toussaint McCall)
Intro:
(organ, pedal bass, and piano - there is no guitar on the record):
[Ab] [Fm] [Db] [Eb]
[//////] [//////] [//////] [//////]
Verse 1:
I moved your p[Ab]ictures from my w[Fm]all
And I'll repl[Db]ace them, both large and s[Eb]mall
And each new [Ab]day finds me so b[Fm]lue
N[Bbm]othing takes the place of [Eb]you[Eb7+5]
Verse 2:
I read your letters one by one
And I still love you when it's all said and done
And oh my darling, I'm so blue
Because n[Bbm]othing, oh n[Eb]othing, takes the p[Ab]lace of you[Ab7]
Bridge:
[Db]As... I write this l[Ab]etter
It's r[Eb]aining on my windowp[Ab]ane[Ab7]
[Db]As... I feel the n[Fm]eed of you
Because w[Bb7]ithout you nothing seems the [Eb7]same[Eb7+5]
Verse 3:
So I'll wait until you're home
Again I'll love you but I'm all alone
And oh, my darling, I'm so blue
Because n[Bbm]othing, oh but n[Eb]othing takes the p[Ab]lace of you
Coda:
Ab Fm Bbm Eb (fade)
