Whiter Shade of Pale (cover)

One of my favorites of all time.
Friday night jammin’ - You know - Bored.
I can’t sing to save my life, but I tried.
If any of you wish to take a whack at it,
I’d love to send you the music tracks.

Enjoy some Procol Harum.

Lyrics:

We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels cross the floor
I was feeling kinda 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 brought a tray

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

She said, there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see.
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might have just as well’ve been closed

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

Circa 1967 - Procol Harum
Gary Brooker, Matthew Fisher, Keith Re

One of my Favorites also. The guitar on this was originally Jeff Whitehorn. he did some great riffing, but is not well known in the Colonies.
