the spider and the fly chords
the rolling stones 1965 live version

E7 E 4

xe7
sittin’ thinkin’ sinkin’ drinkin’
E E7
wondering what i’d do when i’m through tonight
A A7
smoking moping , maybe just hopin’
E7 E E7
some little girl will pass on by
B7 A A7
i don’t wanna be alone but i love my girl at home
E7 E B7
i remember what she said

E E7 E
she said , “my , my , my don’t tell lies , keep fidelity in your head
A A7 E E7 E
my , my , my , don’t tell lies . when you’re done you sure hit the bed .
B7 A A7
and don’t say hi , like a spider to a fly
E E7 E B7
jump right ahead and you’re dead”

E7
sit up , fed up , low down go round
E E7
down to the bar at the place i’m at
A A7
sitting , drinking , superficially thinking
E7 E E7
about the rinsed – out blonde on my left
B7 A A7
then i said , “hi” like a spider to a fly
E E7 E B7
remembering what my little girl said

break

E7
she was hifty , thrifty , she looked about fifty
E E7
i would have run away but i was on my own
A A7 A
she told me later she’s a machine operator
E7 E E7
she said she liked the way i held the microphone
B7 A A7
and i said my , like the spider to the fly
E E7 E B7
jump right ahead in my web
