A Whiter Shade Of Pale by Procol Harum
We skipped a light fandango
Turned (1)____________________ 'cross the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick
(But the) crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter (2)______________ a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller (3)________ his tale
That her face at first (4)________ ghostly
Turned a (5)____________ shade of pale
She said, I'm (6)________ on (7)__________ leave
Though in truth we (8)________ at sea
So I (9)________ her by the looking glass
And (10)__________ not let her be
Saying, you must be the mermaid
Who (11)________ neptune for a ride
But she smiled at me so sadly
That my anger (12)______________________ died
And so it was (13)________ later
As the miller (14)________ his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
She said there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I (15)________________ (16)______________ my playing cards
Would not let her be
One of sixteen (17)____________ virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
At the (18)____________ my eyes (19)________ open
They might just as (20)________ (21)________ (22)________ closed
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at (23)__________ (24)________ ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
