Procol Harum - Whiter Shade Of Pale

C  Am  F  Dm  G  Em  G7  C  F  G  F  G7

C                         Am
We skipped the light fandango

F                                  Dm
And turned cartwheels across the floor

G                          Em      G7
I was feeling kind of    seasick

C                              Am   Em
But the crowd called out for more
  
F                       Dm
The room was humming  harder

G                          Em   G7
As the ceiling flew a-   way

C                           Am     Em
When we called out for a- nother drink

F                                 Dm   
The waiter brought a            tray


Chorus

G13       C6  Cmaj7      Am    C
And so it was      that  later

F                        Dm
As the miller told his tale

G                             Em   
That her face at first just ghostly

G7         C      F          C     G7  C (second time)
Turned a whiter   shade of pale


C                         Am
She said "There is no  reason,

F                                  Dm
And the truth is plain to        see,"

G                          Em      G7
But I wandered through my playing cards

C                              Am   Em
And would not let her        be
  
F                       Dm
One of sixteen vestal virgins

G                          Em   G7
Who were leaving for the coast

C                           Am     Em
And although my eyes were o-     pen

F                                 Dm   
They might just as well have been closed



Chorus

G13       C6  Cmaj7      Am    C
And so it was      that  later

F                        Dm
As the miller told his tale

G                             Em   
That her face at first just ghostly

G7         C      F          C     G7  C
Turned a whiter   shade of pale
