	        Intro: A7 D6 D Em7 Em4/7 G/B D 

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 

Bridge 

G       A7             F#m       Bm7 
I keep wishing I were somewhere else 
G/B                A7    A7/13-         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    Edim 
That it might as well be Spring 
    D    Bm7 Em7  A7   D 
It might as  well be Spring
