	C	Em/B	Am	C/G
	We	skipped the light fand	ango

	F	Am/E	Dm	Dm/C
	And turned	cartwheels across the	floor

	G	G/F	Em	G7
	I was	feeling kind of	seasick

	C	Em/B	Am	C/G
	But the	crowd called out for	more

	F	Am/E	Dm	Dm/C
	The	room was humming	harder

	G	G/F	Em	G7
	As the	ceiling flew	away

	C	Em/B	Am	C/G
	When we	called out for an	other dr	ink

	F	Am/E	Dm
	The	waiter brought a	tray

	C	Em/B	Am	C/G
	She	said "There is no	reason,

	F	Am/E	Dm	Dm/C
	And the	truth is plain to	see",

	G	G/F	Em	G7
	But I	wandered through my	playing cards

	C	Em/B	Am	C/G
	And	would not let her	be

	F	Am/E	Dm	Dm/C
	One of	sixteen vestal	virgins

	G	G/F	Em	G7
	Who were	leaving for the	coast

	C	Em/B	Am	C/G
	And alth	ough my eyes were	op	en

	F	Am/E	Dm
	They	might just as well have been	closed
