The Spider and the Fly by the Rolling Stones
from the album, ^?Stripped^?, 1996.
Words and music by M. Jagger and K. Richards(whoever they are)
transcribed and submitted by Vance Augustine

The song is pretty simple. It^?s your basic 3 chord blues. What really
makes the song is the

Little walking riff they do with the guitars. On every E7 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 A7 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:
