Am C G 


[Verso 1]
Am C Spider John is my name, friends D G Between freights and I sure would be obliged Am C G If I could share your company Am C I'm on my way to nowhere D G I've been running from my past Am C G Running from the things I used to be
[Verso 2]
Am C And I know my words sound strange to you D G Am But if you wait till my song is sung and my story's told C G You might come to understand Am C Why I'm old and bent and devil-spent D G And I'm running out of time Am C D When not long ago, boys, I held a royal flush in my hand
[Refrão]
Em A7 Oh, I was a supermarket fool, I was a roll-the-bank, stool pigeon Em A7 Robbing my hometown Em A7 I thought I'd paid my dues, Lord I thought I'd lost my blues F C Am I thought I'd found the life to suit my style G F C Spider John, the robber man C C/B Am Long, tall and handsome G F C Spider John with the loaded hand C C/B Am Taking ransom
[Verso 3]
Am C Then one day I met Diamond Lil D G She was the prettiest thing, I declare Am C G That the summer wind had ever blown my way Am C Lily had no idea D G Of my illustrious occupation Am C G She thought I was a saint, not a sinner gone astray
[Verso 4]
Am C Spider, he loved his Lily so much D G Am He could not confess his sins, for he knew if he did C G She'd surely take her leave Am C But you know that the word got around and Lily left town D G And he never saw her again Am C D Tossing and turning, causing his heart to grieve
[Refrão]
Em A7 Oh, I was a supermarket fool, I was a roll-the-bank, stool pigeon Em A7 Robbing my hometown Em A7 I thought I'd paid my dues, Lord I thought I'd lost my blues F C Am I thought I'd found the life to suit my style G F C Spider John, the robber man C C/B Am Long, tall and handsome G F C Spider John with the loaded hand C C/B Am Taking ransom
[Verso 5]
Am C That is all my story D G Am It's been at least thirty years since I took to the road C G To find my precious jewel one Am C Oh and if you see my Lily D G Won't you give her my regards Am C G Tell her old Spider got tangled in the black web that he spun Am C G Just tell her that old Spider got tangled in the black web that he spun
