Nothing compares 2 U (capo 3rd
 
   D ~                                           A
1.      It's been seven hours and fifteen days,
Bm                                                   - D - A
      since you took your love away.
D                                          A
    I go out every night and sleep all day,
Bm                                                  - D  - A      
     since you took your love away.
D                                                         A
    Since you been gone, I can do whatever I wa…nt,
Bm                                                    - D - A
     I can see whomever I choose.
D                                                  A
    I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant,
          Bm                                                   F#
    but nothing, I said, nothing, can take away these blues.
             C                 G      - C                   G         A  ~ ~
    'cos nothing compares,     nothing compares 2 U.
 
    D                                     A
2.    It's been so lonely without U here,
Bm                                           -  D - A
     like a bird without a song.
D                                                  A
    Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling,
                 Bm                             G
    tell me, baby, where did I go wrong?
D                                                         A
    I could put my arms around every boy I see,
Bm                                                  -  D - A
     but they only remind me of U.
D                                                                A
    I went to the doctor and guess what he told me, 
     
    guess what he told me .
                   Bm                                                           F#
    He said, "Girl, U better try to have fun no matter what U do",
 
    but he's a fool,
             C                 G      - Bm                    A             ~ ~ ~
    'cos nothing compares          nothing compares 2 U.
 
 
 
 
 
3.  D – A – Bm -  D – A      D – A – Bm -  D - A
 
     D                                                         - A
    All the flowers that U planted, mama,         in the back yard,
Bm                                               - D  - A      
     all died when U went away.
D                                                          A
    I know that living with U, baby, was sometimes hard,
Bm                                                 F#
      but I'm willing 2 give U another try.
      C                  G      - Bm                     A              ~ ~
    Nothing compares,         nothing compares 2 U.
C                 G             - Bm                     A              ~ ~
    Nothing compares,         nothing compares 2 U.
C                        G      - Bm                     A              ~ ~
    Nothing compares,         nothing compares 2 U.
 
    C  - G – Bm – A ~ ~    C – G – Bm – A  ~ ~….
