Billy Bragg - The Milkman Of Human Kindness

album:Life's A Riot With Spy Vs.Spy

Just seen Billy play this at the Glastonbury Festival
He used a capo at the 7th fret.

The main riff used during the intro and verses is only two chords,G
and Eminor.

Play a G                  Then the Em
and immediately add          with this:
this little riff:

Intro:G Em as above
G                Em
If you're lonely,I will call
G                Em
If you're poorly,I will send poetry
C G
Chorus:
G      D
I love you
G              F#        Em
I am the milkman of human kindness,
       C        G
I will leave an extra pint
If you are sleeping,I will wait
If your bed is wet,I will dry your tears
Chorus
D       Em               C  Em   G
Hold my hand for me,I'm waking up
D       Em              C  Em    G
Hold my hand for me,i'm waking up
D                 Em       C  Em    G
Would you hold my hand,i'm making up
D       Em              C   G  D
Hold my hand for me,i'm waking up
If you are falling,I will put out my hand
If you feel bitter,I will understand
Chorus

This is a great tab. Some of your notation is a little confusing. What you call an F# in the chorus and at the end is actually a kind of D, or would be if there wasn't a capo on. Also, the two '1's in the tab look like an 11. But an excellent tab all the same
