The Fever - Southside Johnny & the Jukes chords
Start Jamming...
What [D] a doctor you have to [B] cry, dear!
It's my wedding!
I never had my wedding dance with Cole!
Where is, where is
Southside!
Southside!
Sorry, could you play just one more number?
[F#] There was no wedding dance for my baby!
There's nobody here, looks like the party's over to [B] me.
He's got a point, the party is over.
What's your favorite song, baby?
I Will Survive!
I Will Survive?
We all [E] know it.
Can't you just fake it?
We don't fake songs, we're a rehearsed band, I mean, we're [F#] professionals.
You've never been in love, Southside?
Well, there's no need to get personal, sure, but I
Please, I'm begging you!
Please!
Oh, okay, anything's better than to read the rest of this [N] punch.
He's a good boy.
What's wrong with this punch?
You test it.
You two get ready.
Test that punch!
I'm gonna dance with you, get out of the way!
It's your daughter's wedding!
Don't you argue with me, you awful
Yeah, I'll [B] tell you what, we're here for a very special evening tonight, a very romantic evening.
Bunny and Cole got married today, they more or less had to.
But we won't pass any moral judgments on what [Bm] they've done in the past,
or what they're gonna do in the future, who knows what.
[F#] We're gonna do a song that commemorates the evening that got them together.
I would say it was about six, maybe [B] six and a half months ago.
This is a song called The Fever.
[Bm]
[Am] [Em] [C] [Bm]
[F#] When I get [C] home from my job,
[Bm] I turn on my TV, but I keep, keep my [Em] mind on the shoe.
When [Bm] I lay down at night, [Em] baby, Lord, I don't get no [Am] sleep.
So I turn on [Bm] my radio, [Am] but the only sound I [Em] hear is you whistling in my [Am] ear.
[Em] All the words that you used to sing.
[C] Now [Em] my [Em] days are longer, and my love grows stronger.
And [C] the fever [Bm] gets worse [Em] every day, and I've got the fever, oh girl.
Got [Bm] fever, oh, I've got fever.
[C] Baby, [Am] there ain't nothing I can [Em] do.
So I open my ears.
Got fever, [Bm] oh, I've got the fever.
[C] So you lit [Bm] this little bar [Em] blue.
But I can remember [C] coming home.
And [G] I'd see you standing at the store [C] with your dishes on the table, baby.
[G] Didn't wait until dawn.
[Bm] Baby, I'm out [C] to a movie [Am] show.
Something that you like [Bm] to sing.
