[Verse 1]
[Em]Hallelujah!
[D]The young king sings a s[C]ong for the lover,
[Am]the leaver[A], the l[G]onely a[Em]like
Young love wait[D]s, if I can't,
then I'll [C]meet you at
The gate of Saint [Am]Peter when
[G]the fever takes my [Em]mind
My God she came [D]singing my [C]name,
sounded like rain on the [Am]mountain where I [G]burn [Em]alive
Young flame burn [D]soft as
a candle lit between
[C]Our two hearts just beats
[Am]apart in [A]the [G]dark

[Verse 2]
Spent my summer riding [Em]high
(high) on the [C]whiplash
Head back
Blow[G]ing through the leaves
[Em]Growing up a preacher was
[C]all you [G]ever dreamed
[Em]

[Verse 3]
I got the holy roll
I got the holy roll
I felt the fever grip when I
needed [B]it [Em]close (and)
I'm at the [D]Fever [Em]Pitch
Not quite but [D]nearing [Em]it
Can't feed the [D]fever [Em]yet I'm saving up my

[Interlude 1]
daily measurement
[Em][G][Em][G][Em][G]

[Verse 4]
[Em]I'm at the grocery store
I'm buying eggs and toast
I'm looking at you and not where I walk,
'bout broke my nose facing doors
Don't let the fever get you
Got got already
Lost my soul in the seventh heaven
making out on [D]aisle eleven

[Verse 5]
[G]Spent my summer riding hig[Em]h
(high) on the [C]whiplash
Head back
Blow[G]ing through the leaves
Grow[Em]ing up a preacher was
al[C]ways just a dream
All you ever needed were lines
[G]you could believe
[Em]Sing them to me sweetly
[C]Only just a dream

[Verse 6]
Well I [C]know you can't [Em]walk
With them heels in the dark
Kick [G]'em off
Let's talk
Let me [Em]get to know [G]you
Well I don't know [Em]nothin'
But [G]I'm quick pickin' [Em]up and
[G]I think I could get you in a minute or two
Yeah [Em]if I could get a minute
Four, five at the limit
I think I might make you
Smile after [G]dinner
Kick me under the [Em]table
I think that's my in
And I [G]think I came for that
[Em]What comes with it?

[Verse 7]
Let it simmer Let it simmer
[D]Simmer [Em]down please
I got the holy [Em]roll

[Verse 8]
I got [Em]the holy roll
[Em]I felt the fev[Em]er grip me when I needed
it most (thank the lord)
I'm at the Fever Pitch [Em]now
I'm at the Fever [Em]Pitch
Not quite [Em]but nearly there
I [Em]mean it [Em]man
