Verse

(remember we are in C after the intro)
It's been seven hours and fifteen days 
Since u took your love away       
I go out every night and sleep all day 
Since u took your love away       
Since u been gone I can do whatever I want 
I can see whomever I choose       
eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues, 

Chorus

'Cause nothing compares 
Nothing compares 2 u    

Verse

It's been so lonely without u here 
Like a bird without a song       
Nothing can stop this lonely rage
Tell me baby where did I go wrong      
I could put my arms around every boy I see 
But they'd only remind me of you       
I went to the doctor guess what he told me
He said rosie try to have fun
No matter what u do
But he's a fool

Chorus

'Cause nothing compares 
Nothing compares 2 u    

Sax solo

(Just play another verse)

Bridge

All the flowers that u planted sugar
In the back yard
All died when u went away       
I know that living with me baby is sometimes hard
But I'm willing to try, said I'm willing to give it another try.

Chorus

'Cause nothing compares 
Nothing compares 2 u    
'Cause nothing compares 
Nothing compares 2 u
