HANSON- Man From Milwaukee
From The Album MIDDLE OF NOWHERE(c)
Transcribed by Jim Snodgrass. Send corrections to [email protected]
Intro: E F#m A B E F#m A x 2
E A E A
It started at a bus stop in the middle of nowhere
D E
Sitting beside me was a man with no hair
E A
>From the look on his face to the size of his toes
D E
He comes from a place that nobody knows
Chorus:
F#m A D
Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating,
D
Letting this big- toed bald man sitting here tell me about the sky
F#m A D
Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
D
If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why
E F#m A B
I've been sitting here too long by a man from Milwaukee
E F#m A B
He's been talking too long on his yellow walkie talkie
E F#m A B
He's been talking to Mars, but I think he's wacky
E F#m A B
He says they'll come get him, come get him some day
E F#m A
Verse 2:
E A E A
He says that where he's from is called Albertane
D E
There they use more than 10% of the brain
E A E A
But you couldn't tell it from they way they behave
D E
They run around in underwear and they never shave
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
Dm F G
(Spoken Freely)
This is Mother Bird calling Baby Bird
Baby Bird come in, come in Baby Bird
For the love of Pete come in!
This is Baby Bird...sorry I was watching Court TV
Do you copy? Do you copy?
Of course we copy...24 hours a day...in color
Solo:
E F#m A B E F#m A
E A E A
You wouldn't believe me if I told you the rest
D E
The man sitting by me who was barely dressed
E A E A
Flew off to Milwaukee or perhaps Albertane
D E
And left me at the bus stop just barely sane
F#m A D
Maybe I'm hallucinating, hyperventilating
D
If you asked me now then I couldn't tell you why
E F#m A B
I've been sitting here too long thinkin' about Milwaukee
E F#m A B
I've been talking too long on my yellow walkie talkie
E F#m A B
I've been talking to Mars, You might think that I'm wacky
E F#m A B
I know they'll come get me, come get me someday
I know they'll come get me and take me away
I know they'll come get me, come get me someday
If not tomorrow then maybe today...
