Nothing Else

Intro: G#m B F# C#

        B
I tried money
         D#m
I got as much as I could
and I went to the store
      B
And I bought it all
       D#m
But it wasn't enough
'cause I wanted some more
         B
But my house was full
              Ebm
So I bought a bigger house
    D9-
and filled it up
    Ebm7/C#           Cm7
And there I was with all that stuff
    B
And empty

G#m               B               
Nothing else can take the place of
 F#
 You
     C#
It's true
G#m               B               
Nothing else can take the place of
 F#
 You
            C#
I know it's true

        B
Still I try friendship
         D#m
I called everyone I knew
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
                            B
And invited them over for a party
         D#m
They ate all the free food
                                B
And they told me how much they loved
 me
             Ebm
But when the food was gone
   D9-
My friends were gone
    Ebm7/C#       Cm7
And there I was all alone
    B
And empty

G#m               B

 F#
 You
         C#
Nothing else

B               F#
So take the place
               C#
The place of you
                 G#m
And fill this space
              B
The way you do
                     F#
I'm tired of searching
                     C#
Those days are through
So take the place
                 G#m B F# C#
It's made for you

       G#m                B
Not friends or money or alcohol
F#
None of these things, believe me
        C#
You can try them all
    G#m
Not status
       B
Not success
       F#
I know none of these things
                     C#
will ever bring true happiness

G#m              B
