I Get The Fever

I Get The Fever
written and recorded by Bill Anderson


C                                  
Every time I hear the midnight trains
D7                      G7
Rolling out to the open plains
                                            C
A sense of freedom fills my veins I get the fever
                              D7               G7
Every time I sparrow flies up into the endless skies
                                         C
Something down inside me cries I get the fever

F
I get the fever to pack up and leave here
C
And wander wild like the wind
F                                      
This town's too full of memories of cruel love
    C                                G7
And I can't stand it seeing her with him
      C                          
Every time I hear a buddy say
     D7                   G7
He's put lots of dust and clay
                                    C
Between him and yesterday I get the fever

F
I get the fever to pack and leave here
    C
And I think maybe I'll do just that tomorrow
F
This town's too full of memories of cruel love
     C                             G7
Everywhere I turn there's pain and sorrow
      C
Every time I hear a buddy say
     D7                   G7
He's put lots of dust and clay
                                    C
Between him and yesterday I get the fever
G7        C     G7        C     G7        C
I get the fever I get the fever I get the fever
