[INTRO]
G
[VERSE 1]
G In the shadows, in the bushes, C G in the space between the leaves C G A spider in a thicket D G crawled up on my knee G I put my gloves on, put my hat on, C G and I ran from the trees C G But that little black spider D G came a-crawling after me
[CHORUS]
C G From the shadows in the bushes, C G in the space between the leaves C G A little black spider D G came a-crawling home with me
[VERSE 2]
G It crawled across my window C G as I lay me down to sleep C G In the morning on my pillow D G it waited patiently G And then came the ants, C G the frogs and the snakes C G Slithering and sliding D G through my clean white sheets
[CHORUS]
C G Rustling from the bushes, C G creeping from the leaves C G Every awful creature D G came a-crawling over me
[INTERLUDE]
G C G C G D G
[VERSE 3]
G I crushed them and killed them, C G but they came all the more C G So I ran in my nightshirt D G out onto the lawn G But I tripped upon a tree root C G and they swarmed from the weeds C G A million little teeth D G tore me to pieces
[CHORUS]
C G In the shadows of the thicket C G rain poured through the leaves C G And I was scattered in the mud D G beneath the dripping trees
[VERSE 4]
G But from here and from there, C G from every direction C G Little voices sang D G under twigs and mosses G And I swarmed and I gathered C G under logs and leaves C G I crawled and I slithered D G under rotting trees
[CHORUS]
C G In the tangle of the bushes, C G underneath the wet leaves C G I am many and nothing D G and I crawl up on your knee
