A whiter shade of pale

 
 
Intro:     C   Em   Am   C   F   Am   Dm   F
           G   G7   Em   G7  C   F    G    G7
 
  C   Em                  Am   C   F         Am                  Dm   F
1.We skipped the light fandango. And turned cartwheels cross the floor.
G      G7              Em   G7           C     Em            Am   C 
I was feeling kind of seasick. But the crowd called out for more. 
F   Am               Dm   F  G       G7           Em   G7 
The room was humming harder, as the ceiling flew away. 
C       Em              Am        C F      Am               Dm   G7
When we called out for another drink, the waiter brought a tray.
G7   C   Cmaj7     Am   C   F    Am              Dm   F
And so it was that later, as the miller told his tale, 
G        G7                  Em   G7            C   F          C   G7
That her face at first just ghostly, turned a whiter shade of pale.
 

Zwintro:     C  Em  Am  C   F  Am  Dm  F 
             G  G7  Em  G7  C  F   G   G7
                                                         
  C   Em                Am  C   F       Am               Dm   F   
2.She said there is no reason, and the truth is plain to see,
G      G7                  Em      G7     C   Em               Am   C 
But I wandered through my playing cards, and would not let her be.
F      Am               Dm F  G          G7              Em   G7
One of sixteen Vestal Virgins, who were leaving for the coast.
C       Em                Am C    F        Am                   Dm  G7
And although my eyes were open, they might just have well been closed.
G7   C   Cmaj7     Am  C  F      Am              Dm   F 
And so it was that later, as the miller told his tale, 
G        G7                  Em   G7            C   F          C   G7
That her face at first just ghostly. turned a whiter shade of pale.
