[C][Dm7][G][G7]

[C] We skipped the light fan-[Em]-dango [Am][C]

[F] And turned cartwheels across the [Am] floor [Dm][Dm7]

[G] I was [G7] feeling kind of [Em] seasick [G]

[C] But the [Em] crowd called out for [Am] more [C]

[F] The room was [Am] humming [Dm] harder [Dm7]

[G] As the [G7] ceiling flew [Em] away [G]

[C] When [Em] we called out for [Am] another [C] drink,

[F] The [Am] waiter brought a [Dm7] tray [G7]

And so it [C] was [Em] that [Am] later [C]

[F] As the [Am] miller told his [Dm] tale [Dm7]

[G] That her [G7] face at first just [Em] ghostly [G]

Turned a [C] whiter [F] shade of [C] pale [G7]

[C] She said "There is no [Em] reason, [Am][C]

[F] And the truth is plain to [Am] see," [Dm][Dm7]

[G] But I [G7] wandered through my [Em] playing cards, [G]

[C] And [Em] would not let her [Am] be [C]

[F] One of sixteen [Am] vestal [Dm] virgins, [Dm7]

[G] Who were [G7] leaving for the [Em] coast [G]

[C] And al-[Em]-though my eyes were [Am] open, [C]

[F] They might [Am] just as well have been [Dm7] closed [G7]

And so it [C] was [Em] that [Am] later [C]

[F] As the [Am] miller told his [Dm] tale [Dm7]

[G] That her [G7] face at first just [Em] ghostly [G]

Turned a [C] whiter [F] shade of [C] pale [G7]
