The only place I can think of is to check the Margaritaville's web site but not sure.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

I love that song!

Lyrics:
[Note: A video for this song has been played at shows during the 2006 tour]

[The video (enhanced CD) will be on Jimmy Buffett's new album that will be released in October 2006]

[Thanks to several people for helping to transcribe the lyrics: pirateunder40, sonofabeach, backbeat, RedParrot26]


Here we are
Here we are
Here we are
Here we are

Who would have thought this game, this flame would still be burning?
Who would have guessed that all these blenders would still be churning?
Not even we, on our bended knees could have ever blessed it.
Not even I, with my head in the sky could have ever guessed it, but
Here we are, for a family reunion, costume barbeque.
All the black sheep, family outcasts and a freak or two.

No, the hat tricks and the gold bricks still don’t have us down.
Still a party for the hearty when we come to town.
You’re still grinning, we’re still winning, nothing left to say.
I’m still gliding as I go flying down this endless wave, and
Here we are, we’re the offbeat Uncle Fred’s who spill their wine on you.
And the in your face Aunt Rachel’s with an attitude.
All the ones that use your bathroom then eat all your food.
We’re the dreamy Deadheads who just like us and Dave Matthews.

Here we are, maybe it’s because in spite of all the work we do,
It’s the child in us we really value
Here we are, with our fins up and our feathers flashing
Here we are, with our coconut shell brassieres chafing

[crowd sings] HERE WE ARE

Here we are
Here we are
Here we are……

Pojo is referring to the DVD that was put together for the BN'ers that attended this years Frisco concert.

The DVD is a collection of photos taken by many of us. Assembled onto the DVD, with music, and distributed to many of us that were there.

Here We Are is one of the songs that was used, as it certinaly applied to the tailgate.....we certainly were there!!

There is not a DVD that goes with the live album "Feeding Frenzy".....as far as I know.

I bought the single in iTunes with the intention of using it for a power point slide show. I can't figure out how to get it from iTunes to my program because when I open the iTunes music folder and try to link to the song,it is an empty folder. I am wondering if it has something to do with protected content. But,I bought the song, right? Is there someone out there with more comuter savvy than me who can help figure this out? or steer me in the right direction?

Thanks bunches!

The best chord site OLGA has been shut down. There are few others that have JB's songs (mostly his older stuff) but not Here We Are. I only searched the top few at Google but if you have time maybe you can find more. 8) 8) 8)
