   [Intro]
         
         
        
           


   [Verse 1]
           
We skipped the

            
 light fandang

  
o
           
Turned cartwhe

              
els 'cross the

    
 floor
           
I was feeling 

           
kinda seasick
           
But the crowd 

              
called out for

   
 more
           
The room was h

           
umming harder
           
As the ceiling

        
 flew away
           
When we called

            
 out for anoth

   
er drink
           
The waiter bro

         
ught a tray


   [Chorus]
            
And so it was 

       
that later
           
As the miller 

            
told his tale
           
That her face,

              
 at first just

     
 ghostly
             
Turned a white

            
r shade of pal

   [Instrumental]
         
         
        
           


   [Verse 2]
           
She said, ther

            
e is no reason
           
And the truth 

            
is plain to se

   
e'
           
But I wandered

            
 through my pl

          
aying cards
           
And would not 

        
let her be
           
One of sixteen

            
 vestal virgin

 
s
           
Who were leavi

           
ng for the coa

   
st
           
And although m

            
y eyes were op

   
en
             
They might hav

            
e just as well

            
've been close

  
d


   [Chorus]
            
And so it was 

       
that later
           
As the miller 

            
told his tale
           
That her face,

              
 at first just

     
 ghostly
             
Turned a white

            
r shade of pal

   [Instrumental]
      
      
     
        

   [Outro]
            
And so it was 

       
that later
           
As the miller 

            
told his tale
           
That her face,

              
 at first just

     
 ghostly
             
Turned a white
