Intro : C C/B Am Am/G F F/E Dm Dm/C G/B G/F Em7 G/D C F G F/A G/B C
                         C/B         Am  C/G F
We skipped the light Fandango            
                 F/E                       Dm    F/C G
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
            G/F                Em7    G/D C
I was feeling kind of seasick             
                            C/D               Am C/G F
But the crowd called out for more
         F/E                            Dm  F/C G
The room was humming harder           
             G/F            Em7  G/D C
As the ceiling flew away
                 C/B                 Am      F/C   F
When we called out for another drink    
         F/E                      Dm
The waiter brought a tray
G               C  C/B  Am       C/G F
And so it was       that later           
            F/E                Dm F/C G
As the Miller told his tale
               G/F                     Em7    G/D
That her face, at first just ghostly        
                  C      F              C  G
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Interlude: C C/B Am Am/G F F/E Dm Dm/C G/B G/F Em7 G/D C F G F/A G/B  C
              C/B             Am   C/G F
She said there is no reason             
             F/E                    Dm  F/C G
And the truth is plain to see
           G/F                             Em7   G/D
But I wandered through my playing       
              C          C/B         Am   C/G F
Cards and   would not let her be
             F/E                 Dm    F/C G
One of sixteen vestal virgins,           
                G/F                  Em7 G/D C
Who were leaving for the coast
             C/B                           Am  C/G F
And although my eyes were open         
                 F/E                          Dm
They might just as well've been closed
G               C  C/B     Am  C/G F
And so it was     that later          
                      F/E       Dm  F/C G
As the Miller told his tale
               G/F                        Em7  G/D
That her face, at first just ghostly       
               C     F               C    G
Turned a whiter   shade of pale
