Credit goes to 'anniversary772' for discovering the chords. I just wanted to do 
the whole song because it was bugging me how only half the song was on here.


Capo on the first fret.

C           G
i dreamt of a fever, 
             Am              F                C
one that would cure me of this cold, winter set heart.
           G                 Am 
with heat to melt these frozen tears and burned with reasons
F           C
as to carry on. 
C        G                Am               F      
into these twisted months i plunge without a light to follow
    C                            G 
but i swear that i would follow anything 
                      Am     F 
if it would just get me out of here.
Am             F 
and so you get six months to adapt
Am               F
and then you get two more to leave town.
Am       F                   Am              F             G 
in the event that we do adapt we still might not want you around.
    C            G            Am          F 
and i fell for the promise of a life with a purpose
     C                    G       F 
but i know that that is impossible now.
        C             G 
and so i drink to stay warm
      Am           F 
and to kill selected memories
         C                              G                 F 
because i just can't think anymore about that or about her tonight
Am                      F
And I give myself three days to feel better
Am                        F
Or else I swear I'll drive it off a fucking cliff
Am          F                                  Am
'cause if I can't learn to make myself feel better
                F                       G
How can I expect anyone else to give a shit?
         C           G            Am               F
And I scream for the sunlight or a car to take me anywhere
       C              G                 F
Just get me past this dead and eternal snow
            C            G        Am            F
'cause I swear that I'm dying, slowly but it's happening
                C             G               F
And if the perfect spring is waiting somewhere
       C                   G                  Am
Just take me there, just take me there, just take me there
       F
And say, and lie to me, and say, and lie to me, and say
      C
It's gunna be alright

It's gunna be alright
      G
It's gunna be alright

It's gunna be alright
      Am
It's gunna be alright

It's gunna be alright
      F
It's gunna be alright

It's gunna be alright
      C
It's gunna be alright

G - Am - F - C
