ORPHEUS:
C majorC         D MajorD
 King of diamonds, king of spades!
C majorC     G+G      D MajorD
Hades was king of the kingdom of dirt
C majorC         D MajorD
Miners of mines, diggers of graves
C majorC         G+G    D MajorD
They bowed down to Hades who gave them work
     C majorC           D MajorD
And they bowed down to Hades who made them sweat
   C majorC       G+G     D MajorD
Who paid them their wages and set them about
C majorC      G+G      D MajorD
Digging and dredging and dragging the depths
    C majorC        G+G    D MajorD
Of the earth to turn its insides out, singing

Verse:
C majorC        D MajorD
 King of mortar, king of bricks
C majorC               D MajorD
The River Styx was a river of stones
C majorC          D MajorD
And Hades laid them high and thick
C majorC        G+G       D MajorD
With a million hands that were not his own
C majorC            D MajorD
And a million feet that fell in line
C majorC             D MajorD
And stepped in time with Hades' step
C majorC               D MajorD
And a million minds that were just one mind
C majorC         D MajorD
Like stones in a row
   C majorC    D MajorD
And stone by stone
   C majorC   D MajorD
And row by row
D MajorD
The River rose up, singing
