A Whiter Shade of Pale

Key: C

Introduction:

 C         C/B                           Am         Am/G 
We skipped the light fandango
 F       F/E                                         Dm       Dm/C 
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
 G             G/F                   Em           Em/D 
I was feeling kinda seasick
 C               C/B                     Am                 Am/G 
But the crowd called out for more
 F             F/E                   Dm         Dm/C 
The room was humming harder
 G             G/F                   Em       Em/D 
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
 F             F/E                         Dm   Dm/C 
As the miller told his tale
 G     G/F                                   Em                     Em/D 
That her face, at first just ghostly,
                       C       F               C       G6 
Turned a whiter shade of pale

 C         C/B                       Am         Am/G 
She said there is no reason
 F               F/E                           Dm       Dm/C 
And the truth is plain to see
 G             G/F                               Em             Em/D 
But i wandered through my playing cards
 C             C/B             Am             Am/G 
Would not let her be
 F             F/E                     Dm           Dm/C 
One of sixteen vestal virgins
 G               G/F                         Em       Em/D 
Who were leaving for the coast
 F             F/E                                   Dm 
They might just as well been closed
 G7                   C   C/B               Am       Am/G 
And so it was,___ that later
 F             F/E                         Dm   Dm/C 
As the miller told his tale
 G     G/F                                   Em                     Em/D 
That her face, at first just ghostly
                       C       F               C       G6 
Turned a whiter shade of pale

 G7                   C   C/B               Am       Am/G 
And so it was,___ that later
 F             F/E                         Dm   Dm/C 
As the miller told his tale
