((It's been seven hours - And fifteen days/

  I go out every night  - And sleep all day)

 Since you took your love away - … x2)

Since you've been gone  - I can do whatever I want

I can see whomever I choose    - …

I can eat my dinner     - In a fancy restaurant

But nothing, I said nothing ═════════════════════╗

Can take away these blues ║ Nothing Compares 2 U ║

It's been so lonely        - Without you here

Like a bird without a song - …

Nothing can stop - These lonely tears from falling

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 and guess what he told me

Guess what he told me

He said, girl, you better try to have fun ═══════╗

No matter what you do,         ║ Sinéad O'connor ║

    but he's a fool    [Chorus #2] ══════════════╝

[Verse #1] (… - … x4)

All the flowers that you planted, mama

In the backyard

All died when you went away - …        [Chorus #3]

I know that living with you, baby       () () (x3)

Was sometimes hard                     [Solo

But I'm willing to give it another try  Chorus #3]
