[Verse 1]
C                 Am   G
How did you know
      G      C     Am   G  G
I was hoping for a sign?

Am            G                F
Freight train to the chest, uh-huh
    G              Am
The day we met, uh-huh
   G
My loneliness

[Chorus]
Left the room the second 
          Am
that you walked in
G                F     C
Somethin' like a fever dream
        Am       G
Haven't slept in weeks
            F      C
I think I'm seeing things
         Am      G         
Like our shadows dancing us
 F          C
 out of our clothes

I'll be damned if you love me
E
Damned if you don't

[Instrumental]
Am  G  G  C x2

[Verse 2]
Am         G                G
Maybe it's fate, maybe it's late
           C
Told you I ain't no liar
Am           G                 G
Watching you leave haunting my dreams

How to play Fever Dream: key, chords and progression

These are Fever Dream chords by Alex Warren for Piano and Ukulele.

Fever Dream by Alex Warren sits in C major (no sharps or flats), and you need 6 chords to play it: Am, G, C, F, Esus4 and E.

Most of the song cycles through Am – G – C – Am (vi – V – I – vi in C major). In solfa, that is lah – soh – doh – lah. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Beginner-friendly: on guitar almost every chord is an open shape, which makes this a good song to learn early on.
