Fever

Tom : Em
Em   G   Am   C   Em   G   Am   C

[Verse 1]
Em
With a shrug of her shoulders
G
The mountain came down
Am
Tore a path all the way to the water
C
And through my sleeping town
Em
The trails I'd wandered
G
All erased in the birth
Am
Of the million year old rock
C
From the naked gasping earth

[Chorus]
C D Em D
Oh my children where you gonna go
C D Em D
Now you’ve lost the land you called your home
C D Em D/F# G
When the Earth is burning, fever on her brow
C D Em
Crying oh my children, who will save you now

[Verse 2]
Em
Now the winters hit harder
G
The summers are fire
Am
And the rains are thе tears of a mother
C
For her rеbellious reckless child
Em
But still the spring brings clover
G
Amid the blackened oaks
Am
Sprays of fledgling branches
C
And the wildflowers below

[Chorus]
[Bridge]
G C D Am7
Farewell the family of the Holocene
G C D Am7
Farewell the fragile air, the sea, the land
G C D Am7
Five times before she's seen the rise and fall again
G C B
But never by their own hand, never by their own
N.C.
Oh my children

[Solo]
Em   G   Am   C   Em   G   Am   C

[Verse 3]
Em
Chaos was my lover
G
But fate is my bride
Am
We will meet at the edge of the ocean
C
And the ever rising tide

[Chorus 2x]
