1. We skipped a light fandango, and turned cartwheels
Dm F G G7/F Em G
cross the floor, I was feeling kind of seasick,
C Em/G Am C F
but the crowd called out for more.
F/E Dm F G G7/F Em G
The room was humming harder, as the ceiling flew away,
C Em/G Am C/G F
when we called out for another drink,
F/E Dm
the waiter brought a tray.
G7 C-Em/G Am C/G F F/E Dm F
And so it was that later, as the miller told his tale,
G G7/F Em G
that her face at first just ghostly
C F C (G) (not after last refrain)
turned a whiter shade of pale.

2. She said, there is no reason, and the truth is plain to see,
F G G7/F Em G
but I wandered through my playing cards,
C Em/G Am C/G F F/E Dm
and would not let her be, one of sixteen vestal virgins,
F G G7/F Em G
who were leaving for the coast.
C Em Am C F
And although my eyes were open,
F/E Dm
they might just have well been closed.
