HANSON- Man From Milwaukee 
	From The Album MIDDLE OF NOWHERE(c)  
	Transcribed by Jim Snodgrass. Send corrections to JAS466@PSU.EDU

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...
