I Got A Fever In My Bones Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I got a fever [A]in my bones,
feet's full of sand,
my head's full of [Eb]stone.
I got a fever [A]in my bones,
for the no count [Eb]daughter of
old Jeb [D]Jones.[Bm][D][G]
[D]Jeb Jones' daughter has yel[A]low hair,
folks all [D]say that she ain't all there.
Down in the holler the [G]boys all [D]follow,
Jeb Jones' daughter with
a low neck collar.
She can't cook and [G]she can't [A]sew
She roams the woods like a [Eb]yelling doe
[D]One, two, three, come and [G]follow me
[D]Let Jeb Jones' daughter to
the sycamore tree
Oh, I got a fever in my [A]bones
Feet full of sand on [D]heads full of stones
I got a fever in my [A]bones
For the no -count [D]daughter of
old Jeb Jones
She ain't the kind I'd marry with
[A]She ain't the kind I'd [D]tarry with
Don't look [G]now if I break my [D]bow,
she [Eb]might be [D]strolling by
the old hay mow.
She's got a way to handle men,
[A]kicks them around to the bac[D]k again.
Gotta go petticoat [G]short of the [D]news,
pop goes the jug,
then it's her -er -er me -o.
I've got a fever in [A]my bones,
feet's full of sand
[Bb]and the [A]head's full of s[Eb]tone.
I've got a fever [D]in [A]my bones
for the no -count [Bb]daughter [D]of [Eb]old Jeff
[D]Jones.[G][D]
[G][D][G]
[D]
[G][D]
I've got a love for apple [A]pie
I've got a love [D]who's [Eb]sweet and shy
[D]Don't need to ask whi[G]ch is best[D]
Take a little bite and you know the rest
Oh, what can you do when you like [Bb]her?
Flings through your heart like
a whistle [D]-down bird
Kiss [G]her once, do [D]no more
Tomorrow comes and
you're knockin' [Eb]at her d[D]oor
Oh, I've [Eb]got a f[D]ever in my bones
[Bb]Feet's full of sand
and the head's full of [Eb]stone
I've got a [D]fever in [A]my bones[Bb]
[A]For the no [D]-count daugh
ter [D]of old Jeb Jones
I've got a weakness, plain to [A]see
Ain't [Bb]no cure for the pa[Eb]in in me
Hair of [D]gold, [G]I suppose [D]Je b Jones'
daughter sure got a [Eb]hold
One of these [D]days she'll
have a shack[Bb],
plan to marry with a [D]gun in back,
look and see who it could be,
don't look long cause it might be [D]me.
Oh, [Eb]I ain't got a fever [D]in [Bb]my bones,
feet for sand and a [Bb]hip [Eb]for stone,
I ain't got a [D]fever in my bones,
for the no -count [Bb]dollar I'll [Eb]pull [Bb]Jet P[D]ro.
[Eb]
