{start_of_verse: Verse 1}
[Am]No milk today, my [C]love has gone away.
The [E]bottle stands for[Am]lorn, a [E]symbol of the [Am]dawn.
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_verse: Verse 2}
[Am]No milk today, it [C]seems a common sight,
But [E]people passing [Am]by don't [E]know the reason [Am]why.
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_chorus: Chorus 1}
[A]How could they know just [G]what this message means,
The [D]end of my hopes, the [D]end of [E]all my [A]dreams.
[A]How could they know, a [G]palace there had been,
[D]Behind the door where [D]my love [E]reigned as [A]queen.
{end_of_chorus}
{start_of_verse: Verse 3}
[Am]No milk today, it [C]wasn't always so,

{end_of_verse}
{start_of_bridge: Bridge 1}
[A] But all that's [E/G#]left is a [D/F#]place dark and [E]lonely
[A] A terraced [E/G#]house in a [D]mean street back of town
[A] Becomes a [E/G#]shrine when I [D/F#]think of you [E]only
[D]Just two up two [E]down.
{end_of_bridge}
{start_of_verse: Verse 4}
[Am]No milk today, it [C]wasn't always so,
The [E]company was [Am]gay, we [E]turn'd night into [Am]day.
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_verse: Verse 5}
[Am]As music played the [C]faster did we dance
We [E]felt it both at [Am]once, the [E]start of our ro[Am]mance.
