Key: D
Introduction:
A7 D6 D Em7 Em4/7 G/B D
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm,
A7 D6 D D7M D7
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string
G A7 Bm Bm7 G A7 F#7 B7 G A7
I'd say that I had spring fever, but I know it isn't Spring.
A7 D6 D Em7 Em4/7 G/B D
I am starryeyed and vaguely discontented,
A7 D6 D D7M D7
Like a nightingale without a song to sing
G A7 Bm Bm7 G A7 D
Oh, why should I have Spring fever, when it isn't even Spring?
G A7 F#m Bm7
I keep wishing I were somewhere else,
G/B A7 D
Walking down a strange new street,
G A7 F#m Bm7
Hearing words that I have never heard
G A7 D
From a girl I've yet to meet.
A7 D6 D Em7 Em4/7 G/B D
I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams,
A7 D6 D D7M D7
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
G A7 Bm Bm7 G A7 F#7
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud, or a robin on the wing,
E7 A7 G/B A7
But I feel so gay, in a melancholy way,
D Bm7 E7 Eº
That it might as well be Spring,
D Bm7 Em7 A7 D
It might as well be Spring.
