[Intro]

Am C E Am


[Verse 1]

Am                    C         Dm                    Am
Never know how much I love you, never know how much I care
Am                      C                 E                       Am
When you put your arms around me, I get a fever that's so hard to bear
            Am     C                 Dm                     Am
You give me fever, when you kiss me, fever when you hold me tight
Am     C               E                     Am
Fever! In the morning, fever all through the night

[Verse 2]

Am         C               Dm                 Am
Sun lights up the daytime, moon lights up the night
Am                  C                     E                        Am 
I light up when you call my name, and you know I'm gonna treat you right
            Am     C                 Dm                     Am
You give me fever, when you kiss me, fever when you hold me tight
Am     C               E                     Am
Fever! In the morning, fever all through the night


[Bridge]

Am          C              Dm                Am
Everybody's got the fever, that is something you all know
Am          C                 E                   Am
Fever isn't such a new thing, fever started long ago
