A Bolanic revision of Orpheus Descending, Sounds better on acoustic guitar



 C                  Am 
 Prince of Players, Pawn of none
 F                            G
 Born with steel reins on the heart of the Sun 
 C                     Am
 Gypsy explorer of the New Jersey Heights  
 F                    G
 Exalted companion of cocaine nights **

             C            Am
 'Cos he's a Dandy in the Underworld
 C            Am
 Dandy in the Underworld
F                       G  
 When will he come up for air,
      Am      C    D
 Will anybody ever care *



same chords for the rest of the song and chorus.


 At an old eighteen exiled he was
 To the deserted kingdoms of a mythical Oz
 Distraction he wanted, to destruction he fell
 Now he forever stalks the ancient
 Mansions of hell

 * Repeat

 Now his lovers have left him
 And his youth's ill spent
 He cries in the dungeons and tries to repent
 But change is a monster and changing is hard
 But he'll freeze away his summers in his
 Underground yard

 * Repeat
 ** Repeat
 Repeat twice
