Dancing undercover - John Cale

I saw John performing in September 2000 at Leffingeleuren(Belgium). A friend
of mine recorded the show on minidisc. After listening to this song, I could
figure out the general riffs for the song. I don't have the text, but if you
know the song, you shouldn't have any problems with the lyrics I hope.

Intro and Verses:

   D#  Mute       G# Mute	  D#  Mute       G#  Mute
