A Whiter Shade Of Pale by Procol Harum

We skipped a (1)__________ fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling (2)________ 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

And so it was that later
As the miller (4)________ his tale
That her (5)________ at first (6)________ ghostly

So I took her by the (11)______________ glass
And would not let her be

Who took 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 told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a (14)____________ shade of pale

She (15)________ there is no reason

As the (21)____________ (22)________ his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

And so it was that later
As the miller (23)________ his tale
That her face at first (24)________ ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
