The Spider And The Fly

[Intro] E

E
Sittin' thinkin' sinkin' drinkin'
E
Wondering what I'd do when I'm through tonight
A
Smoking moping, maybe just hopin'
E
Some little girl will pass on by
      B                    A
Don't wanna be alone but I love my girl at home
E                         B
I remember what she said
           E
She said, "My, my, my don't tell lies, keep fidelity in your head
A                          E
My my my, don't tell lies. When you're done you should hit the bed
B                    A
Don't say hi, like a spider to a fly
E                                 B
Jump right ahead and you're dead"

E
Sit up, fed up, low down go round
E
Down to the bar at the place I'm at
A
Sitting drinking, superficially thinking
E
About the rinsed-out blonde on my left
B                        A
Then I said, "hi" like a spider to a fly
E                                    B
Remebering what my little girl said

        E
She was common, flirty, she looked about fifty
E
I would have run away but I was on my own
A
She told me later she's a machine operator
E
She said she liked the way I held the microphone
B                       A
I said my, my, like the spider to the fly
E                            B
Jump right ahead in my web
