Tom: C
C
When the fever passes
At the bottom of
The cotton in the background
In the background of the flood
F
Dry among the wet and the rotten
C
When the fever passes
Next to the brimming well
The worst is more than over
And anyone can tell
When the fever passes
And we're all back in our nests
F
We'll be extravagant hosts instead of imposing guests
D F
And all that you know of this is what you have heard
C
I'm not sure even the best of us
D F
And all that you know of this is what you have heard
C
I'm not sure even the best of us
D F C
Can care all the time
When the fever passes
When we don't know what to do
We'll buy twice as many comforts
Just like we used to do
When the fever passes
When the fever clears
We'll look back on these quietly like they're someone else's years
