Chords for Herman's Hermits starring Peter Noone "No Milk Today"

_ _ _ We've been doing it twice for 50 years [E] already.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [Bb] I'd like to do a song for my mum.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[G] Every time I play here it is my mother's birthday.
It's just an [B] amazing _ [Bb] coincidence. _ _ _
Today is my mother's_ Birthday, Jeremy. _ _
_ My mother was born in _ 1926.
_ _ 83 years ago. _ _
_ _ I didn't finish high school. _
_ _ _ I was on the road with these guys.
_ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
I was on the road with some other guys older than these guys. _
_ _ _ _ [B] Dave's dad was in the band [Bb] then.
_ _ _ [E] It's my mum's birthday.
_ I'd like to dedicate this song to her.
I called her and said,
Mum, [Bb] I'm back at the Rams Head.
_ _ [Ab]
The town went_
_ _ And she hung up on me.
_ [G] _ _ _ I called back and said,
[D] What's up mum?
She said,
I'm sorry, I [F] thought you were that lizard selling insurance.
_ _ _ [D] Apparently in England [Bb] there's this lizard_
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [C] Who's using Herman's Hermit's voices_
[Eb] To sell automobile insurance. To [C] _ unsuspecting_
82 year old people.
_ _ Who don't even have [A] driving licences. _
_ _ _ _ _ Iguanas. _
_ [Am] _ _ So [Cm] I said,
Mum, _ [G] it's me, your favourite song.
She said,
Oh, hello Damon. _
_ [Bb] _ [Eb] I like to do a song for you.
She said,
Sing that song.
You know that song_
[C] _ About the milk.
[Eb] No milk today. Yeah!
_ _ [G] _ She said,
Of course I remember it mum, that was me singing [A] it. _
_ _ _ [N] _ Then she said,
Oh, do Mrs Robinson.
I said,
No, no, that was _ [Bb] Paul Simon.
Simon and Garfunkel.
She said,
Oh, stop [Gm] it! _ _
[Bb] She really [Am] thinks it's me, Mrs Robinson. _
[F] So we'll do that for tomorrow.
[Bb] _ [Bb] So this one's about my mum when she was about 40. _
My dad_
My mother is Elton John. _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] You knew there [Bb] was some resemblance right?
My mother is Elton John and my father is Mick Jagger.
_ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ [D] And I've got my mother's [Eb] body. _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ Vance has one of Mick Jagger's socks.
_ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ But he's loaned it to Bobby Sherman because he's going [Abm] out on tour.
[Am] _ _ _ _ [F] This is a song for my mum though, I better be careful.
I'm [E] always like that. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] This is from my mum and she said,
Tell the story about the _ milkman when he knocked on the door.
Our milkman truly, this is a true part of the story,
Our milkman [Eb] was Freddy from Freddy and the Dreamers.
[C] Everyone _ _ _ thinks that's a joke but he really was our milkman.
And he said,
Mrs New, _ [G] it's your birthday, would you like something special?
She [G] said,
Yes, I'd like [Gb]
300 pints of milk and pour [E] them in the bathtub [Eb] upstairs.
My husband, Mick, is [Ab] coming home from tour.
And I'd [Cm] like him to discover me upstairs.
_ [D] He'll come in the house, he'll go,
John!
I mean, he'll go,
John!
_ And [B] I'll be upstairs like [Bb] this,
I'm up here darling.
_ [G] And he'll come in the bathroom and I'll be there laying [Bb] naked. _ _ _
_ It's alright, it's my [Eb] mum.
_ I'll be there [A] splashing like in that Bob and Derry.
_ [Eb] _ _
_ I'll be [N] lying there in milk and everything, you know what I mean?
Milk, 200 pints of this.
I said, Mrs New, sounds like a good idea.
[Bb] Passed your eyes?
She said,
No, just up to [Eb] the top of my boot.
_ _ _ _ _ I don't want to [Db] get any milk [Ab] in my hearing aid.
[A] _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [C] _ _ [A] You know today, [C] my love's young lady.
Her [E] bubbles are small, but the symbol of good old [Am] days.
Don't know if tonight, you'll [C] see me come inside.
[E] People passing by, don't know the reason why.
[A] How could they know, [G] just what this message means?
[D] The end of my hope, the end [E] of my dreams.
How could they know, [G] a prayer instead of being.
[D] Behind the door, the melody [A] in the street.
Don't know if _ tonight, you'll see me come inside.
[E] Come when you [E] need me, you turn out [A] to be. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I was left [Gbm] to wait, [E] I'm lonely.
[A] I'll take [E] a shower, [D] stand up, speak back in [A] time.
I'll keep on [E] trying, _ [D]
I'll keep on going.
Just what to do now?
_ _ [Am] Don't know if tonight, [C] you'll see [Gb] me come inside.
Come when [Am] you need me, you turn out to be.
As the music plays, [C] from my sticky house.
Don't [Am] know if [E]
tonight, [A] _ you'll see me come inside.
How could they know, just [G] what this message means?
[D] The end of my hope, the end [A] of my dreams.
How could they know, a [G] prayer instead of being.
Just behind the door, when my love [A] made me scream.
_ [Am] _ Today, [C] my name is made.
[E] The father says, hold on to this.
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ [D] Some days I'm lonely, [A] _ I'll take a shower, [D] stand up, speak back in time.
[E] I'll keep on trying, [D] some days I'm alone.
Just hold [E] together. _
_ [D] Just look to [A] the _ end.
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
