This is my first attempt to send something to OLGA. I hope I’ve got the procedure right. By the way thanks for OLGA. It’s been a godsend for me. The Spider and the Fly by the Rolling Stones from the album ^ÓStripped^Ô 1996. Words and music by M. Jagger and K. Richards(whoever they are) The song is pretty simple. It^Òs your basic 3 chord blues. What really makes the song is the little walking riff they do with the guitars. On every chord play it like this E--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0- B--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0- G--1---------2----------4------------2----------1----------2----------4- D--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0- A--2---------4----------5------------4----------2----------4----------5- E--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0- Hit each chord form on the beat hold the last one for two beats Then on the drop down to this E--0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0-- B--2----------3----------5----------3----------2----------3----------5-- G--0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0-- D--2----------4----------5----------4----------2----------4----------5-- A--0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0-- E--x----------x----------x----------x----------x----------x----------x- Put it all together and it goes like this: (intro) riff twice riff Sittin^Ò thinkin^Ò sinkin^Ò drinkin^Ò riff Wondering what I^Òll do when I^Òm thru tonight riff Smokin^Ò mopin^Ò maybe just hopin^Ò riff Some little girl will pass on by I don^Òt wanna be alone But I love my girl at home riff I remember what she said riff She said ^ÓMy my my don^Òt tell lies! riff Keep fidelity in your head! riff My my my Don^Òt tell lies riff When you^Òve done your show hit the bed Don^Òt say ^ÓHi^Ô like a spider to a fly riff Jump right ahead and your dead! Sit up fed up low down go round Down to the bar at the place I^Òm at Sittin^Ò drinkin^Ò superficially thinkin^Ò about the rinsed out blonde on my left and then I said ^ÓHi^Ò like a spider to a fly Remembering what my little girl said (harmonica solo) she was spiffy shifty she looked about fifty I would have run away but I was on my own She told me later she was a machine operator she said she liked the way I held the microphone I said ^ÓMy my my like a spider to a fly Jump right ahead in my web!^Ô (guitar solo and end)
