Verse 1:
C majorC  E minorEm          A minorAm  C/GC/G
 We skipped the light fandango
FF    A minorAm          DmDm  Fmaj7Fmaj7
 Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
G+G   G/BG/B       E minorEm   G+G
 I was feeling kind of seasick
C majorC    E minorEm       A minorAm     C/GC/G
 But the crowd called out for more
FF  A minorAm        DmDm   Fmaj7Fmaj7
 The room was humming harder
G+G    G/BG/B      E minorEm   G+G
 As the ceiling flew away
C majorC    E minorEm       A minorAm   C/GC/G
 When we called out for another drink
FF  A minorAm        DmDm
 The waiter brought a tray

Chorus:
G+G     C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm  C/GC/G
And so it was.. that later
FF    A minorAm       DmDm  Fmaj7Fmaj7
 As the miller told his tale
G+G     G/BG/B        E minorEm   G+G
 That her face at first just ghostly
     C majorC   FF     C majorC   G+G
Turned a whiter shade of pale


Instrumental:
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm C/GC/G
FF A minorAm DmDm Fmaj7Fmaj7
G+G G/BG/B E minorEm G+G
C majorC FF G+G FF G+G


Verse 2:
C majorC  E minorEm        A minorAm  C/GC/G
 She said there is no reason
FF    A minorAm        DmDm  Fmaj7Fmaj7
 And the truth is plain to see
G+G   G/BG/B         E minorEm      G+G
 But I wandered through my playing cards
C majorC     E minorEm     A minorAm  C/GC/G
 And would not let her be
FF    A minorAm       DmDm   Fmaj7Fmaj7
 One of sixteen vestal virgins
G+G     G/BG/B       E minorEm  G+G
 Who were leaving for the coast
C majorC   E minorEm      A minorAm     C/GC/G
 And although my eyes were open
FF      A minorAm        DmDm
 They might just as well been closed

Chorus:
G+G     C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm  C/GC/G
And so it was.. that later
FF    A minorAm       DmDm  Fmaj7Fmaj7
 As the miller told his tale
G+G     G/BG/B        E minorEm   G+G
 That her face at first just ghostly
     C majorC   FF     C majorC   G+G
Turned a whiter shade of pale

FF A minorAm DmDm Fmaj7Fmaj7

C majorC FF G+G FF  G+G   C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm  C majorC
     And so it was.. that later...
FF    A minorAm       DmDm  Fmaj7Fmaj7
 As the miller told his tale
G+G     G/BG/B        E minorEm   G+G
 That her face at first just ghostly
     C majorC   FF     C majorC   G+G
Turned a whiter shade of pale
