[Bbm] [Eb] Woooo!
Hey!
Ain't nothing [Ab] like the [Eb] real [Ab] thing, [Cm] baby.
Ain't nothing like [Ab] the real thing.
No, [Eb] no.
Ain't nothing like the real [Ab] thing, [Cm] baby.
Ain't nothing [Fm] like the real [Eb] thing.
No, honey.
[Cm] [Fm] I've got your [Eb] picture,
[Fm] [Eb] hanging on the wall, [Cm] but I can't see.
[G] Come to me [Gm] when I call [Eb] your name.
[Bbm] I [Eb] realize it's [Cm] just a [Ab] picture [Eb] in a frame.
[Ab] Woooo!
I read [Eb] your letter,
[Fm] and you're [Eb] not here.
[Cm] But they don't move [G] me,
they don't groove [Cm] me like when I hear
[Bbm] your sweet [Cm] voice whispering [Ab] [Eb] in my ear.
Don't you know?
Ain't nothing like [Ab] the [Eb] real [Ab] thing, [Eb] baby.
[Ab] Ain't nothing [Fm] like the real thing.
I [Eb] play my game,
[Fm] a [Eb] fantasy.
[Ab] I pretend, [G] but I know [Cm] in reality
[Bbm] I need the [Cm] shelter of your arm [Eb] on me.
No [Gm] other sound
[G] is quite the same as [Cm] your name.
[Eb] No touch can do, I [Fm] just smile
[Eb] to make [Bb] me feel [Fm] better.
So let's be [Ab] together.
All [Eb] my memories,
[Ab] look back [Eb] on,
[Cm] though they have [G] been blown,
[Cm] I'm well aware.
[Bbm] Nothing [Cm] can take the place [Ab] of your [Eb] being there.
So glad we got the real thing, [Ab] [Eb] baby.
[Cm] So glad we got [Fm] the real thing.
Oh, [Eb] honey.
Ain't nothing [Ab] like the [Eb] real [Fm] thing, [Cm] baby.
No touch.
Ain't nothing [Fm] like the real thing.
[Eb] Talk to me.
Ain't nothing [Ab] like the [Eb] real [Fm] thing, [Eb] baby.
So [Cm] glad.
Ain't nothing [Fm] like the real thing.
[Eb] [N]
