Were Here Tab

by Meat Puppets





we're here
by curt kirkwood
from the album: MEAT PUPPETS II

these are, i think, the chords for we're here. the guitar part is
fairly simple, a lot of the color is provided by the bass. i didn;t
tab out the two guitar solos. they aren't really traditional solos,
more like ascending echoing, flanging, sound clouds.

the D* might actually be a D??  (XX0202) ??? the other chords are
simple open chords like you'd strum next to a campfire late at night,
a little drunk, wishing it would warm up a little bit.

any corrections are greatly welcomed.

intro:


*
the night is restless
but no dream's in sight

and the sounds have no beginnings or ends
and that glow is not a light


*
the walls turn into waterfalls
with water made of thoughts that call,

"it's not O.K. to tip the glass
don't smile too long or shed a tear
*
you're not the only one that's you
things have changed, now we are here."

solo:
         ?

*
we are not the king and queen
what we are lies in between

the blankets that you've never seen
but over you are spread
*
"we are here," the voices sing
"we are here," the echo thunders

"here we are," the doorbell rings
"we are here and here in numbers"

solo:
         ???

*
the others came in from the hall
and thoughts with voices start to call,

"it's not O.K. to tip the glass
or smile too long or shed a tear
*
you're not alone the way you thought
things have changed, now we are here"
