Meat Puppets is an American rock band formed in January 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. The group's original lineup was Curt Kirkwood (guitar/vocals), his brother Cris Kirkwood (bass guitar), and Derrick Bostrom (drums). The Kirkwood brothers met Bostrom while attending Brophy Prep High School in Phoenix. The three then moved to Tempe, Arizona (a Phoenix suburb and home to Arizona State University) where the Kirkwood brothers purchased two adjacent homes, one of which had a shed in the back where they regularly practiced.

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.
D* the night is restless but no dream's in sight A7 and the sounds have no beginnings or ends and that glow is not a light
D* the walls turn into waterfalls with water made of thoughts that call, A7 "it's not O.K. to tip the glass don't smile too long or shed a tear D* you're not the only one that's you things have changed, now we are here."
solo: EEGGEEGGF5A?
D* we are not the king and queen what we are lies in between A7 the blankets that you've never seen but over you are spread D* "we are here," the voices sing "we are here," the echo thunders A7 "here we are," the doorbell rings "we are here and here in numbers"
solo: EEGGEEGGF5A???
D* the others came in from the hall and thoughts with voices start to call, A7 "it's not O.K. to tip the glass or smile too long or shed a tear D* you're not alone the way you thought things have changed, now we are here"
