When her daddy tried to kill him, she said, “Daddy, oh, don't you dare!”

Am                                              E7
Now you've listened to my story, here's the point that I have made

Chicks were born to give you fever, be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade
             Am                                                       E7
They give you fever, when you kiss them, fever if you live and learn
Am                       D7                E7             Am
Fever! 'till you sizzle, what a lovely way to burn


D7                    Am
what a lovely way to burn
D7                    Am
what a lovely way to burn
D7                    Am
what a lovely way to burn
