Verse 1
Plateau – Meat Puppets
G, Bb all the way through
[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
to [Bb]beautify the foothills, shake the many hands.
[Bb]Nothing[G] on the top [Bb]but a bucket[G] and a mop and an illustrated book about
[Bb]birds.
[Bb]You see a [G]lot up there, but don't be scared.
[Bb]Who needs action when [G]you got words?
[G]When [Bb]you've finished with the mop then you can stop
and [G]look at what you've done.
[Bb]The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen,
[G]and the work, it was fun.
Chorus
[G]Many a [Bb]hand began to scan around for the next plateau.
[G]Some say it[Bb] was Greenland and some say Mexico.
[G]Others [Bb]decided it was nowhere, except for where they stood.
Those [G]were all [Bb]just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could.
Chorus
