C     C/B              Am     Am/G 
We skipped the light fandango 
F    F/E                     Dm    Dm/C 
turned cartwheels 'cross the floor 
G       G/F          Em      Em/D 
I was feeling kinda seasick 
C        C/B           Am         Am/G 
but the crowd called out for more 
F       F/E          Dm     Dm/C 
The room was humming harder 
G       G/F          Em    Em/D 
as the ceiling flew away 
C          C/B            Am     Am/G 
When we called out for another drink 
F       F/E          Dm 
the waiter brought a tray

And so it was,___ that later,____ 
F       F/E             Dm  Dm/C 
as the miller told his tale 
G   G/F                  Em           Em/D 
that her face, at first just ghostly, 
           C    F        C    G6add11 G6 
turned a whiter shade of pale

C     C/B            Am     Am/G 
She said there is no reason 
F        F/E              Dm    Dm/C 
And the truth is plain to see 
G       G/F                Em       Em/D 
But I wandered through my playing cards 
C       C/B       Am       Am/G 
Would not let her be 
F       F/E           Dm      Dm/C 
One of sixteen vestal virgins 
G        G/F             Em    Em/D 
Who were leaving for the coast 
C           C/B           Am   Am/G 
And although my eyes were o____pen 
F       F/E                  Dm 
They might just as well been closed
