A Whiter Shade Of Pale
Procol Harum
It's quite simple, but really beatifull song.
There are two stretches in the intro, but they are not impossible.
Just try. At least you can play only higher notes.
I wrote also chord's name over tabline, but I'm not really sure
they are all right (like FaddB, for example)
