A Whiter Shade Of Pale by Procol Harum

We skipped a (1)__________ fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was (2)______________ 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 (3)______________ drink

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a (23)____________ (24)__________ of pale
