a whiter shade of pale

Tom : C
[Intro] C Em/B Am C/G F F/E Dm Dm/C G G/F Em G7/D C F G
(verse 1 - same for Verse 2, verse 2 lyrics at bottom)
C Em/B Am C/G
We skipped the light fandango
F F/E Dm Dm/C
turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
G G/F Em G7/D
I was feeling kinda seasick
C Em/B Am C/G
but the crowd called out for more
F F/E Dm Dm/C
The room was humming harder
G G/F Em G7/D
as the ceiling flew away
C Em/B Am C/G
When we called out for another drink
F F/E Dm
the waiter brought a tray

[Refrão]
G C Em/B Am C/G
And so it was,___ that later,____
F F/E Dm Dm/C
as the miller told his tale
G G/F Em G7/D
that her face, at first just ghostly,
C F C G7
turned a whiter shade of pale
(instrumental - Same as Intro)
(verse 2)
C Em/B Am C/G
She said, 'There is no reason
F F/E Dm Dm/C
and the truth is plain to see,
G G/F Em G7/D
But I wandered through my playing cards
C Em/B Am C/G
and would not let her be
F F/E Dm Dm/C
one of sixteen vestal virgins
G G/F Em G7/D
who were leaving for the coast
C Em/B Am C/G
and although my eyes were open
F F/E Dm
they might have just as well've been closed
