Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
C C/B Am Am/G
We skipped the light fandango
F F/E Dm F/C
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
G G/F Em G
I was feeling kinda seasick
C C/B Am Am/G
But the crowd called out for more
F F/E Dm F/C
The room was humming harder
G G/F Em G
As the ceiling flew away
C C/B Am Am/G
When we called out for another drink
F F/E Dm
The waiter brought a tray
[Chorus]
G C C/B Am Am/G
And so it was that later
F F/E Dm C
As the miller told his tale
G G/F Em G
That her face, at first just ghostly
C F C
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Repeat Intro
[Verse 2]
C C/B Am Am/G
She said, "There is no reason"
F F/E Dm F/C
And the truth is plain to see
G G/F Em G
But I wandered through my playing cards
C C/B Am Am/G
And would not let her be
F F/E Dm F/C
One of sixteen vestal virgins
G G/F Em G
Who were leaving for the coast
C C/B Am Am/G
And although my eyes were open
F F/E Dm
They might have just as well've been closed
Chorus x 2:
G C C/B Am Am/G
And so it was that later
F F/E Dm C
As the miller told his tale
G G/F Em G
That her face, at first just ghostly
C F C
Turned a whiter shade of pale
