[Bb] [Abm] Many a hand has skilled to grand old face the [Ab] plateau
[Abm] Some belong to strangers and some to [Gb] folks youth
[Abm] Holy ghosts and pox show hosts are planted [Ab] in the sand
To [Abm] beautify the foothills and trees
[Ab] [A] [Ab]
Step above the [B] pop, [Gb] butterfly, pin a [Ab] mop, and a little spring
[B] You [Ab] see a lot up [B] there, but don't be [Ab] scared
Who needs [B] action when you've got [Abm]
[Db] [Ab]
[Abm] [Gb] [Ab] work [Abm] to finish
Mop and you can't stop and look at [Gb] what you've done
[Ab] The [Abm] plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen, and the [Gb] work's just [A] won
There's [Ab] nothing on [B] the top but a bucket and [Ab] a mop
[B]
Don't [Ab] [B] be [Gb] scared, [Ab] who needs [B] action when you've got [Abm] work
The many hands began to [Ab] scan around for the next plateau
[Abm] Some said it was Greenland and some [Gb] said [Ab] Eastland
Others decided [Abm] it was nowhere, some drew a where [Gb] to [Ab] stand
[Abm] But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you
