Verse:
C
Well, I don't know, but I've been 
told
                    G7
Uranium ore's worth more than gold
C               F
Sold my Cad', I bought me a Jeep
     G7               C
I've got that bug and I can't sleep




Chorus:
 C                F               
Uranium fever has done and got me 
C
down
 C               D7          
Uranium fever is spreadin' all 
   G7
around
       C
With a Geiger counter in my hand
      F                          
I'm a-goin' out to stake me some 
G7
government land
C        A7        D7       G7  
 Uranium fever has done and got me 
   C
down




Verse 2:
C
Well I had talk with the AEC*
And they brought out some maps that 
       G7
looked good to me
        C                       
And one showed me a spot that he 
 F
said he knowed
     G7                           
So I straddled my Jeep and headed 
C
down the road
C
I reckon I drove about 100 miles
                      G7
Down a bumpy road out through the 
wilds
     C               F
When all of sudden I bounced to a 
stop

       G7                         
At the foot of a mountain, didn't 
C
have no top




Chorus:
 C                F               
Uranium fever has done and got me 
C
down
 C               D7          
Uranium fever is spreadin' all 
   G7
around
       C
With a Geiger counter in my hand
      F                          
I'm a-goin' out to stake me some 
G7

Verse 3:
       C
Well I took my Geiger and I started 
to climb
                            G7
Right up to the top where I thought 
I'd find
  C                 F
A hunk of rock that would make it 
click
     G7                  C
Just like I'd read about Vernon Pick
       C
On the second day, I made the top
And I'm tellin' you, Steve, I was 
G7
ready to stop
    C                    F
The only clickin' that I heard that 
day
        G7                        
Was the bones in my back that had 
C
gone astray




Chorus:
 C                F               
Uranium fever has done and got me 
C
down
 C               D7          
Uranium fever is spreadin' all 
   G7
around
       C
With a Geiger counter in my hand
      F                          
I'm a-goin' out to stake me some 
G7
government land
C        A7        D7       G7  
 Uranium fever has done and got me

Verse 4:
          C
Well, you pack up your things

You head out again
Into some unknown spot where 
G7
nobody's been
    C                        
You reach the spot where your 
 F
fortune lies....
    G7                       C
You find it's been staked by 17 
                   C
other guys....
      C
Well, I ain't kiddin', I ain't gonna
 quit
                              G7
That bug's done caught me and I've 
been bit
          C                    F
So with a Geiger counter and a pick 
in my hand
          G7                   
I'll keep right on stakin' that 
 C
government land

Uranium fever has done and got me 
C

 C               D7          
Uranium fever is spreadin' all 
   G7
around
       C
With a Geiger counter in my hand
      F                          
I'm a-goin' out to stake me some 
G7
government land
C        A7        D7       G7  
 Uranium fever has done and got me
