                    "Nothing Takes The Place Of You"
                           (Toussaint McCall)

Intro:

	(organ, pedal bass, and piano - there is no guitar on the record):

	Ab (xx1114@1)   Fm (133111@1)   Db (x43121@1)   Eb (x43121@3)////// ////// ////// //////

Verse 1:

	              Ab (xx1114@1)              Fm (133111@1)I moved your pictures  from my wall
	             Db (x43121@1)                      Eb (x43121@3)And I'll replace them, both large and small
	             Ab (xx1114@1)              Fm (133111@1)And each new day  finds me so blue
	 Bbm (x13321@1)                      Eb (x43121@3)  Eb7+5
	Nothing  takes the place of you

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
	         Bbm (x13321@1)       Eb (x43121@3)               Ab (xx1114@1)         Ab7 (xx1112@1)Because nothing, oh nothing, takes the place of you

Bridge:

	Db (x43121@1)                 Ab (xx1114@1)As...  I write this letter
	      Eb (x43121@3)                Ab (xx1114@1) Ab7 (xx1112@1)It's raining on my windowpane
	Db (x43121@1)               Fm (133111@1)As...  I feel the need of you
	         Bb7 (x13131@1)                        Eb7 (x32310@4) Eb7+5
	Because without you nothing seems the same

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
	         Bbm (x13321@1)           Eb (x43121@3)              Ab (xx1114@1)Because nothing, oh but nothing takes the place of you

Coda:

	Ab (xx1114@1)   Fm (133111@1)   Bbm (x13321@1)  Eb (x43121@3)   [fade]
