G+G

     G+G
In the shadows, in the bushes,
     C majorC         G+G
in the space between the leaves
  C majorC      G+G
A augmentedA spider in a thicket
 D MajorD        G+G
crawled up on my knee

      G+G
I put my gloves on, put my hat on,
    C majorC       G+G
and I ran from the trees
     C majorC       G+G
But that little black spider
     D MajorD      G+G
came a-crawling after me

      C majorC       G+G
From the shadows in the bushes,
     C majorC         G+G
in the space between the leaves
  C majorC       G+G
A augmentedA little black spider
     D MajorD        G+G
came a-crawling home with me

   G+G
It crawled across my window
   C majorC        G+G
as I lay me down to sleep
    C majorC       G+G
In the morning on my pillow
  D MajorD      G+G
it waited patiently

   G+G
And then came the ants,
   C majorC       G+G
the frogs and the snakes
 C majorC       G+G
Slithering and sliding
 D MajorD           G+G
through my clean white sheets

 C majorC         G+G
Rustling from the bushes,
 C majorC         G+G
creeping from the leaves
C majorC       G+G
Every awful creature
     D MajorD      G+G
came a-crawling over me

G+G C majorC G+G C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G

  G+G
I crushed them and killed them,
     C majorC      G+G
but they came all the more
   C majorC     G+G
So I ran in my nightshirt
 D MajorD      G+G
out onto the lawn

    G+G
But I tripped upon a tree root
      C majorC        G+G
and they swarmed from the weeds
  C majorC        G+G
A augmentedA million little teeth
 D MajorD     G+G
tore me to pieces

     C majorC       G+G
In the shadows of the thicket
 C majorC            G+G
rain poured through the leaves
      C majorC        G+G
And I was scattered in the mud
  D MajorD          G+G
beneath the dripping trees

     G+G
But from here and from there,
   C majorC    G+G
from every direction
 C majorC       G+G
Little voices sang
D MajorD        G+G
under twigs and mosses

    G+G
And I swarmed and I gathered
C majorC        G+G
under logs and leaves
  C majorC       G+G
I crawled and I slithered
D MajorD        G+G
under rotting trees

    C majorC       G+G
In the tangle of the bushes,
   C majorC       G+G
underneath the wet leaves
   C majorC    G+G
I am many and nothing
    D MajorD        G+G
and I crawl up on your knee

    C majorC       G+G
In the tangle of the bushes,
   C majorC       G+G
underneath the wet leaves
   C majorC    G+G
I am many and nothing
    D MajorD        G+G
and I crawl up on your knee
