C Am
We skipped the light fandango <--- verse I
She said "There is no reason, <--- verse II
F Dm
And turned cartwheels across the floor
And the truth is plain to see,"
G Em G7
I was feeling kind of seasick
But
I wandered through my playing cards
C Am Em
But the crowd called out for more
And would not let her be
F Dm
The room was humming harder
One of sixteen vestal virgins
G Em G7
As the ceiling flew a- way
Who were leaving for the coast
C Am Em
When we called out for a- nother drink
And although my eyes were o- pen
F Dm
The waiter brought a tray
They might just as well have been closed
Chorus
G13 C6 Cmaj7 Am C
And so it was that later
F Dm
As the miller told his tale
G Em
That her face at first just ghostly
G7 C F C G7 C (second time)
Turned a whiter shade of pale
