[Intro 5:41]
Am
Uh Ah[Verse 1 06:18]
Am C She keeps the world at bay Dsus2 With walls built to stand come-what-may D# Am And with that coldness on display they held until today C She would hold her own Dsus2 Running all alone D# Am Ridding her road of every grain to stay in control
[Chorus 06:43]

[Verse 2 07:19]
Am C She's won every war Dsus2 And when she's out that door D# Am She will push ahead of you, frowning at the poor C She would move so fast Dsus2 Not to end up last D# Am Aiming for the finish line to smile at those she'd passed

[Outro 09:52]
Am C Dsus2 Itsy bitsy spider, climbed the water spout D# Am Down came the rain and washed the spider out C Dsus2 Now she stays on the ground, so she'll never fall D# Am See, she would rather drown than lose control Am She really would
