Comment or message any ideas or corrections. Please rate my tab. If you've got
problems with the tab, I'd encourage you to contact me with those problems so I
can fix the tab or provide advice for playing. Don't just give me a poor rating
and not give me any feedback. The idea is for us all to work together to create
a perfect finished product. This tab just represents the best I can do. It's 
definitely up for peer review.



Key:

/ \ - slides, up and down respectively.

      baseline, you'd see the notes are 
      displayed in the tab in the correct 
      chronological order.

Fever, I'm a slave to           Am

Fever, they're misunderstood    Dm
Wouldn't leave you if I could   F
Fever



Chorus:

Fever cuz I'm breaking
Fever got me aching
Fever, why don't you explain?
Break it down again

Just go ahead and kill me
Fever, why don't you explain?
Break it down again

Realize I have been played
But fever let me play the game
