Plateau - Meat Puppets
G, Bb all the way through

GMany (320003@1)a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau.
BbSome (x1333x@1)belong to strangers, and some to folks you know.
GHoly (320003@1)ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
    Bbto (x1333x@1)beautify the foothills, shake the many hands.

(CHORUS:)
Bb (x1333x@1)	  G (320003@1)          Bb (x1333x@1)       G (320003@1)        
Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop and an illustrated book about 
Bbbirds. (x1333x@1)Bb (x1333x@1)	     GYou (320003@1)see a lot up there, but don't be scared.
Bb (x1333x@1)                  GWho (320003@1)needs action when you got words?

G (320003@1)			BbWhen (x1333x@1)you've finished with the mop then you can stop
    Gand (320003@1)look at what you've done.
BbThe (x1333x@1)plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen,
Gand (320003@1)the work, it was fun.

CHORUS

G (320003@1)				BbMany (x1333x@1)a hand began to scan around for the next plateau.
		G (320003@1)	     BbSome (x1333x@1)say it was Greenland and some say Mexico.
			G (320003@1)		BbOthers (x1333x@1)decided it was nowhere, except for where they stood.
		     G (320003@1)			  BbThose (x1333x@1)were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could.
