Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Chorus 1]
[C]Ooh, baby
[C]Ain't nothing like
the real thing, baby
[F]Ain't nothing like
the [Dm]real thing, no [C]no
Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby
[F]Ain't nothing like the rea[Dm]l thing
Oh ho[C]ney

[Verse 1]
I've got your [C]picture
hangin' [Dm]on the w[Em]all
But [F]it can't see or [Eaug]come to me
when I [Am]call your name
I [Gm]rea [C]lize it's [F]just a p[Em]ic ture
[F]in a [C]frame

[Verse 2]
I read your [C]letters when [Dm]you're not [Em]near
But [F]they don't move me
And [Eaug]they don't groove me like wh[Am]en I hear
[Gm]Your sweet [C]voice
[F]whisper[Em]ing i[F]n my e[C]ar

[Chorus 2]
Don't you know
[C]Ain't nothing like
the real thing, baby
[F]Ain't nothing like
the [Dm]real thing

[Verse 3]
I play my [C]game, a [Dm]fan ta[Em]sy
[F]I pretend but I[Eaug] know in rea lity[Am]
I [Gm]need the [C]shelter [F]of your [Em]arms
to [F]comfort [C]me

[Bridge 1]
No other [Em]sound is [E]quite the same
as your [Am]name
No [C]touch can do half as [F]much
[G]to make me feel bet[A]ter
[Dm]So let's stay toge[G]ther

[Verse 4]
Oh, I got some [C]memories to [Dm]look back [Em]on
[F]Though they help me [Eaug]when you're gone
I'm [Am]well aware
[Gm]nothing [C]can [F]take the [Em]place
of your [F]being [C]there

[Chorus 3]
[C]Oh, so glad we got
the real thing, baby
[F]So glad we got the rea[Dm]l thing
Oh [C]ho ney, ain't nothing like
the real thing, baby
(Oh [F]darling), ain't nothing like
the [Dm]real thing
[Repeat and fade]
