Fever chords by Glen Phillips

Intro:
Em G Am C
Em G Am C

Verse 1:
Em
with a shrug of her shoulders
G
the mountain came down
       Am
tore a path all the way to the water
C
through my sleeping town

Em
And the trails i'd wandered
G

on a race to the birth
       Am
of the million year old rock
         C
from the naked gasping earth


C              D*                  Em  D
oh my children where you gonna go
C                D*                   Em   D
now you lost the land you called your home
         C                D*           Em    G
when the earth is burning fever on her brow
       C              D
crying oh my children who will save you now

Interlude

Verse 2:
Em
now the winters hit harder
G
the summers are fire
        Am
and the rains are the tears of a mother
        C
for a rebellious reckless child

Em
still the spring brings clover
G
amid the blackened oaks
Am
sprays some fledgling branches
        C              N.C.
and the wild flowers below


C              D*                  Em  D
oh my children where you gonna go
C                D*                   Em   D
now you lost the land you called your home
         C                D*           Em    G
when the earth is burning fever on her brow
       C              D                 Am
crying oh my children who will save you now

Bridge:
   C/B       C             D*           Am
farewell the family of the hollis seeds
    C/B      C               D*           Am C/B
farewell the fragile air the sea the land
              C                D*            Am    C/B
five times before she seen the rise and fall again
                   C
but never by their own hand
               Em
never by their own
N.C.
oh my children

Solo

Verse 3:
Em
chaos was my lover
G
fate is my bride
        Am
we will meet at the edge of the ocean
        C
and the ever rising tide


C              D*                  Em  D
oh my children where you gonna go
C                D*                   Em   D
now you lost the land you called your home
         C                D*           Em    G
when the earth is burning fever on her brow
       C              D                 Em  D
crying oh my children who will save you now
         C                D*           Em    G
when the earth is burning fever on her brow
       C              D                 Em
crying oh my children who will save you now
