I got your picture hanging on my wall but it can't sing, or come to me - 
            C#m                Bm7           Amaj7          A    E 
     when I call your name.  I realized it's just a picture in a frame. 
             E          F#m7       E/G#   A

Absus      Ab            C#m         Bm7              Amaj7      A     E 
they don't prove it like when I hear your sweet voice whispering in my ear.

I play my games of fan-ta-sy.    I've been down.  I don't see reality.

I got some memories to look back on,  though they help me when you're gone 
    C#m        Bm7         Amaj7                 A     E 
I'm well aware nothing can take the place of you being there.

No touch can do half as much  -  to make me feel better.

Ain't nothing like the real  thing,   ba-by.  Ain't nothing like the real thing. 
   So glad we  got the real  thing,   ba-by.     So glad we  got the real thing.
