Meat Puppets – Plateau (Ukulele)

G
Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau.

Bb
Some belong to strangers, and some to folks you know.

G
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand

    Bb
to beautify the foothills, shake the many hands.

Bb			  G            Bb         G          
Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop and an illustrated book about 

Bb
birds.

Bb			     G
You see a lot up there, but don't be scared.

Bb                    G
Who needs action when you got words?

G					Bb
When you've finished with the mop then you can stop

    G
and look at what you've done.

Bb
The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen,

G
and the work, it was fun.

G						Bb
Many a hand began to scan around for the next plateau.

		G			     Bb
Some say it was Greenland and some say Mexico.

			G				Bb
Others decided it was nowhere, except for where they stood.

		     G					  Bb
Those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could.
