[Verse 1]
AmC
No milk today, my love has gone away,
EAmEAm
The bottle stands for - lorn, a symbol of the dawn,
AmC
No milk today, it seems a common sight,
EAmEAm
But people passing by, don't know the reason why
[Verse 2]
AG
How could they know ...just what this message means?
DDEA
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams,
AG
How could they know ...a palace there had been?
DDEA
Behind the door, where my love reigned as Queen
[Verse 3]
AmC
No milk to - day, it wasn't always so,
(No milk to - day----------!)
EAmEAm
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day,
AmC
As music played, the faster did we dance,
(As music played--------------!)
EAmEAm
We felt it both at once, the start of our ro - mance
[Verse 4]
AG
How could they know ...just what this message means?

A * E/G#D/F#E/G#
But all that's left is a place, dark and lonely,
(Ah--------------, ah------, ah------------, ah-----!)
A * E/G#Dmaj7
A terraced house in a mean street, back of town,
(Ah----------, ah------, mean street, back of town!)
A * E/G#D/F#E/G#
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only,
(Ah----------, ah---------, ah---------, ah-----!)
DE
Just two-up, two - down!
(Just two-up, two - down!)
[Verse 7]

No milk to - day, it wasn't always so,
