Procul Harum - Whiter Shade of Pale
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: tezhall
Email: tez@affordablesupplements.co.uk
Tuning: standard
Another tab I've done without access to the CD, I was just playing around the
other day and this popped out, so I decided to put it up for people to correct or
use and abuse at their will. If it's crap I'm sorry, but it sounds kinda right
to me.
It's just the chords tho cos I haven't got the CD to tab it out properly.
CHORDS USED (I think the names are about right, where I don't know them I've just
put a guess with a ?
e|-3---3----3---3---0--0---0--0------2--2--3-|
B|-3---3----3---3---1--1---1--1------3--3--3-|
G|-0---0----0---0---0--0---2--0------4--2--2-|
D|-0---0----2---0---2--0---2--2------4--0--0-|
A|-2---0----2---2---3--2---0--0------2--0--0-|
E|-3---2----0---0---0--0---0--0------2--0--0-|
G G/F# Em7 Cm7? C C/G Am Am7? Bm D Dsus2
The general chord progression seems to just repeat around each verse and the
chorus as below
Cm7?
We skipped the light fandango
Am7?
Turned cartwheels cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
Cm7?
The crowd called out for more
Am7?
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
Cm7?
When you called out for another drink
The waiter brought the tray
Cm7?
And so it was that later
Am7?
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
(D)
Turns a whiter shade of pale
The whole lot then repeats over for the next 3 verses...sorry I've had a stab at
getting the solo but harpsichord isn't the easiest thing to reproduce on a guitar
and I'm nowhere close!
Cheers,
Tez
