Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
Well, [C]I don't know, but I've been told
Uranium ore's worth [G]more than gold
[C]Sold my Cad', I [F]bought me a Jeep
I've [G]got that bug and [C]I can't sleep

[Chorus 1]
U[C]ranium fever has [F]done and got me [C]down
Uranium fever is [D]spreadin' all a[G]round
With a [C]Geiger counter in my hand
I'm a- [F]goin' out to stake me
some [G]government land
[C]Uranium fev[A]er has don[D]e and got[G] me dow[C]n

[Verse 2]
Well, I [C]had a talk with the AEC
And they brought out some maps
that looked [G]good to me
And one [C]showed me a spot
that he [F]said he knowed
So I [G]straddled my Jeep
and headed [C]down the road
I reckon I drove about 100 miles
Down a bumpy road out [G]through the wilds
When [C]all of sudden I [F]bounced to a stop
At the [G]foot of a mountain, didn't [C]have no top

[Chorus 2]
U[C]ranium fever has [F]done and got me [C]down
Uranium fever is [D]spreadin' all a[G]round
With a [C]Geiger counter in my hand
I'm a- [F]goin' out to stake me
some [G]government land
[C]Uranium fev[A]er has don[D]e and got[G] me dow[C]n

[Verse 3]
Well, I [C]took my Geiger and I started to climb
Right up to the top where I [G]thought I'd find
A [C]hunk of rock that would [F]make it click
Just [G]like I'd read about [C]Vernon Pick
On the second day, I made the top
And I'm tellin' you, Steve, I was [G]ready to stop
The [C]only clickin' that I [F]heard that day
Was the [G]bones in my back
that had [C]gone astray

[Chorus 3]
U[C]ranium fever has [F]done and got me [C]down
Uranium fever is [D]spreadin' all a[G]round
With a [C]Geiger counter in my hand
I'm a- [F]goin' out to stake me
some [G]government land
[C]Uranium fev[A]er has don[D]e and got[G] me dow[C]n

[Verse 4]
Well, you [C]pack up your things
You head out again
Into some unknown spot
where [G]nobody's been
You [C]reach the spot where your [F]fortune lies
You [G]find it's been staked by [C]17 other guys
Well, I ain't kiddin', I ain't gonna quit
That bug's done caught me and [G]I've been bit
So with a [C]Geiger counter
and a [F]pick in my hand
I'll keep [G]right on stakin' that [C]government land

[Chorus 4]
U[C]ranium fever has [F]done and got me [C]down
Uranium fever is [D]spreadin' all a[G]round
With a [C]Geiger counter in my hand
I'm a- [F]goin' out to stake me
some [G]government land
[C]Uranium fev[A]er has don[D]e and got[G] me dow[C]n
[G][C]
