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

Verse 2:
 
C            Em      Am     C/G
She said there is no reason
F                         Dm   Dm/C
And the truth is plain to see.'
G                         Em           G7
But I wandered through my playing cards
 
C     Em              Am  C/G
And would not let her be
F                Dm      Dm/C
One of 16 vestal virgins
G                        Em    G7
Who were leaving for the coast
 
C               Em         Am  C/G
And although my eyes were open
F                                    Dm
They might have just as well've been closed
 
 
Chorus 2:
 
 
G          C   C/B        Am    C/G
And so it waaaaas,that later, 
F                       Dm  Dm/C
as the miller told his tale
G                            Em      G7
that her face, at first just ghostly,
           C    F        C    G7
turned a whiter shade of pale

Chorus 3/Outro:
 
 
G          C   C/B        Am    C/G
And so it waaaaas,that later, 
F                       Dm  Dm/C
as the miller told his tale
G                            Em      G7
that her face, at first just ghostly,
           C    F        C    G7
turned a whiter shade of pale....
