Intro:
Em

Verse 1:
  Em
I met an old, fat spider,
G        D      G
Spinning in his tree.
  Em
I said, "Hey old, fat spider,
  G       D           G
I bet you can't catch me!
       G                 D
You've grown too fat you lazy lob.
       C           G
You're just an old Tomnoddy!
    Am            Em
Hey Attercop! Hey Attercop!
    C           D  Em
You can't catch anybody."

Verse 2:
    Em
And then the old, fat spider,
   G      D     G
He spun a final thread.
  Em
I said, "Hey old, fat spider,
     G         D        G
It's time that you were dead!"
  G                D
I drew my sword to cut his silk,
   C            G
To kill the old Tomnoddy.
    Am                   Em
But then I thought, I'll leave him be;
   C           D  Em
He can't catch anybody.

Interlude:
C D Em

Verse 3:
  Em
I met an old fat spider
G       D       G
In his spinning tree.
    Em
His web all old and tattered,
    G        D      G
And he could hardly see.
  G              D
I shooed a fly into his lair
   C            G
To feed the old Tomnoddy.
       Am                 Em
'Cause how can you kill a spider
    C           D  Em
who can't catch anybody?

Am                 Em
How can you kill a spider
    C           D  Em
who can't catch anybody?

To feed the old Tomnoddy.

'Cause how can you kill a spider
