The Fever - Bruce Springsteen

The 1973 gem that Bruce didn't release officially until 1998 on the "Tracks" box 
set.  Also can be heard on several bootlegs, like the "Prodigal Son At Winterland 
'78", or in an incredible acoustic version on the "Lost Radio Show '74"

Am7 (x02010@1)      EmWhen (022000@1)I get home from my job I turn on my TV
      Am7 (x02010@1)                     EmBut (022000@1)I can't keep my mind on the show
       Bm (x24432@1)                          CWhen (x32010@1)I lay down at night, oh I can't get no sleep
     Am7 (x02010@1)         BmSo (x24432@1)I turn on my radio
        Am7 (x02010@1)        Bm (x24432@1)        Em7
But the only sound I hear is you whisperin'  in my ear
    Am7 (x02010@1)                  Em7
The words that you used to say
       Am7Now (x02010@1)my days grow longer
          Em7
'Cause my love grows stronger
        C (x32010@1)        Bm (x24432@1)        Em7
And the fever gets worse every day

And I've got the fever for this girl

BmHe's (x24432@1)got the fever, oh he's got the fever
Am7 (x02010@1)                       EmNothing (022000@1)that a poor boy can do

                   Am7Well, (x02010@1)now, you are my sun in the morning
       EmAnd (022000@1)my moon at night
       Am7When (x02010@1)I think about you
