The Fever tab by Bruce Springsteen

The Fever - Bruce Springsteen

(Winterland,1978 version in which the outro becomes the great lost verse)

Intro
Em    Bm   Am   Em  (8X’s)

Em(implied)            Am           Em
When I get home from my job I turn on the T.V.
         Am                      Em
But I can't keep my mind on the show
        Bm                       Am
When I lay down at night,  I don't get no sleep
      C            Bm
So I turn on the radio
         C            Bm           Em
But the only thing I hear is you whisper in my ear
      Am                    Em
The words that you used to say
        Bm
Now the days grow longer
           Em
And the love grows stronger
         Am          Bm       Em
And the fever gets worse each day
                                Em
And I've got the fever for the girl

CHORUS
Em              Bm
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Am                                 Em
There ain't nothin' that a boy can do

When he's got the fever for this girl
Em              Bm
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Am          Bm      Em
She left me sad and blue


Em                     C
I can remember comin' home
       G
See you standin' at the stove
            C
With the dishes on the table
          G
Dinner ready, ready, ready
        Bm                      Am
We'll maybe go out to a movie show
  C                         Bm
Something that you like to see
                C         Bm
Baby you're my sun in the morning
        Em
And my moon at night
   Am
You put your arms around me
    Em
And made me feel alright





              Am
Now the days grow longer
          Em
'Cause my love grows stronger
         Am         Bm            Em
And the fever gets worse every day
And I've got the fever for this girl
Em                 Bm
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Am                      Em
Nothing that a boy can do

When he's got the fever for this girl
Em              Bm
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Am            Bm    Em
She left this boy blue

It’s just these long and lonely nights, these long and lonely nights
        Em               Bm          Am        Em
Every time I close my eyes, all I see is her face
        Em               Bm       Am        Em
Every time I shut my eyes, all I see is her face

But I’m gonna be all right now
              Em    Bm   Am        Em
I’m gonna be all right now
                              Bm   Am     Em
When I turn down the lights (spoken)
              Em                       Bm   Am      Em
When I turn down the lights (spoken)
              Em                     Bm   Am        Em
When I put my head on the pillow (spoken)
              Em                        Bm   Am        Em
I can’t stop myself from thinking (spoken)
  Em            Bm             Am             Em
Where is she tonight. Tell me where is she tonight
  Em             Bm            Am              Em
Where is she tonight. Tell me where is she tonight (fade)
