[Instrumental 1] C Cmaj7 C [Verse 1]
C          C/B       Am          Am7
Spend… the night… in Charlotte's bed…

    F         C         F           C   Cmaj7  C
You might get caught in Charlotte's web…

  F                  C
A satin rose… that's growin’ wild…

Dm                                      G      G7
Charlotte holds… more secrets… than the night…
[Verse 2]
C              C/B         Am     Am7
She spins… and weaves… her magic spell…

F        C       F                 C     Cmaj7  C
Her body speaks… what… words can't tell…

F            C
I'm a moth…  she's a flame…

     Dm                                        G   G7
In a town… that's all too quick…  to smear her name…
[Chorus 1]
         C         F        C          F       C     Cmaj7  C
But I'll take… the likes of Charlotte… and her kind…

C          F           C                            Bb
Small town talk… don't matter now… that Charlotte's mine…

   F       Em         Dm    Dm7       Fm
It may be… true… that other men… have found her bed…

    G        F          Em         Dm          C
But I'm… the one… who's caught… in Charlotte's web…
[Instrumental 2] C Cmaj7 C - 3 times G F Em Dm C [Verse 3]
C          C/B      Am       Am7
Charlotte… took me… late one night…

F           C        F     C     Cmaj7  C
To a secret room… by candlelight…

F                        C
She dealt the cards… and read my hand…

Dm                                  G   G7
Said she hoped… that I… would understand…
[Verse 4]
C               C/B        Am      Am7
She turned… two cards… up… face to face…

F              C           F           C     Cmaj7  C
She said… "Two hearts have found their place…"

F                    C
Now all the rest… is history…

Dm                                     G G7
The future's full of Charlotte… lovin’ me…
[Chorus 2]
         C         F        C          F       C     Cmaj7  C
And I'll take… the likes of Charlotte… and her kind…

C          F           C                            Bb
Small town talk… don't matter now… that Charlotte's mine…

   F       Em         Dm    Dm7       Fm
It may be… true… that other men… have found her bed…

    G        F          Em         Dm          C
But I'm… the one… who's caught… in Charlotte's web…
[Outro]
   F       Em         Dm    Dm7       Fm
It may be… true… that other men… have found her bed…

    G        F          Em         Dm          C
But I'm… the one… who's caught… in Charlotte's web… (Charlotte's web…)
