Verse 1:

                    Ab                Fm
      I moved your pictures  from my wall
                   C#                        Eb
      And I'll replace them , both large and small
                   Ab                Fm
      And each new day  finds me so blue
       Bbm                        Eb    Eb7M5
      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         Eb                 Ab           Ab7
      Because nothing, oh nothing, takes the place of you

Bridge:

      C#                   Ab
      As...  I write this letter
            Eb                  Ab   Ab7
      It's raining on my windowpane
      C#                 Fm
      As...  I feel the need of you
               Bb7                          Eb7   Eb7M5
      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             Eb                Ab
      Because nothing, oh but nothing takes the place of you

Coda:
