intro : / C Em Am C / F Am Dm F / G G7 Em G7 / C F G G7 /
C Em Am C
we skipped the light fandango
F Am Dm F
turned cartwheels ’cross the floor
G G7 Em G7
i was feeling kind of seasick
C Em Am C
but the crowd called out for more
F Am Dm F
the room was humming harder
G G7 Em G7
as the ceiling flew away
C Em Am C
when we called out for another drink
F Am Dm G7
the waiter brought a tray

refrain
/ C Em Am C /
and so it was that later
F Am Dm F
as the miller told his tale
G G7 Em G7
that her face at first just ghostly
C F C G7
turned a whiter shade of pale

she said there is no reason
F Am Dm F
and the truth is plain to see . . . . . .
G G7 Em
G7
but i wandered through my playing
cards
C Em Am C
and would not let her be
/ F Am Dm F
one of sixteen vestal virgins
G G7 Em G7
who were leaving for the coast
C Em Am C
and although my eyes were open
F Am Dm
G7
they might just as well been closed
( refrain ) and so it was that later
