D#
I see colour raining down
Feral feelings, swaying sound
              Cm A#         D#
But I don't know  what you want

I can open, I am restless
Let me feel it out
                   A#
Let it all come out

Chorus:
Cm        A#            G#   A#
Wake me up, I'm fever dreaming
         Cm          A#             D#    A#
And now I lose control, I'm fever dreaming
Cm         A#                    G#    A#

And the starlit sky grew before my eyes
Twenty-two women stood by the banks and cried
Oh, I

Chorus

I must be fever dreaming (I'm fever dreaming)
