OK Plateau

(Capo 3rd)

VERSE
C
Well at last it has paid off
C
You've mastered the art
F
Of the world that once was closed to you
F
You've become a part

You put in 10 thousand hours
Had the determination and drive
But the sacrifices were worth it
Cos finally you've arrived

G                            G7
At the summit... but no no no... you're stuck on

CHORUS
F                                   C
The OK Plateau, oh oh oh
F                             C
The OK Plateau, no no no

VERSE
As you've woken with awareness
And see a dusty world
But everyone's so friendly
They say settle down

But you've put in so much hard work
And you know you've more than them
So you redouble your efforts
To be better than these men

And reach the summit, but no no no.... you're stuck on

CHORUS

MIDDLE
Am
The plateau is so seductive
C
It sure offers a lot
Em
Regular folk look up to you
G
Wishing they had what you've got

So few can tell the difference
Between the great and merely good
And perhaps if you drink hard enough
Even you've misunderstood
F
And slowly slow
G                           
You can it let go....
G7
Soon all you know, know, know, is

CHORUS

OUTRO
F G C
