A Whiter Shade Of Pale
Words and Music
by
Keith Reid and Gary Brooker
(c) 1961 Westminster Music Ltd
Orignally recorded by Procol Harum
Arranged for MIDI by Kevan R.Craft
(c) 1993/94 MIDICraft Compositions and Arrangements
According to Gary Brooker, he was never very interested in the Organ, inspite
of the fact that it played such a big part in his major hits with Procol Harum.
'Whiter Shade of Pale' is probably the best remembered track of Procol Harum
and is firmly established in the history of 'Rock 'n' Roll' as a classic!
A Whiter Shade Of Pale
Words and Music
by
Keith Reid and Gary Brooker
(c) 1961 Westminster Music Ltd
We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kind of sea-sick
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 are leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
they might just have weel bee 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
