VERSE 1:
On [C#m] candystripe legs, spiderman comes
[A] Softly through the shadow of the evening sun
[C#m] Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
[A] Looking for the victim, shivering in bed

VERSE 2:
[C#m] Searching out fear, in the gathering gloom
And [A] suddenly A movement in the corner of the room
And there is [C#m] nothing I can do, when I realise with fright
That the [A] spiderman is having me for dinner tonight

BREAK: [C#m] [A] : [x2]

VERSE 3:
[C#m] Quietly he laughs, shaking his head
Creeps [A] closer now, closer to the foot of the bed
And [C#m] softer than shadow and quicker than flies
His [A] arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes

VERSE 4:
"Be [C#m] still, be calm, be quiet now, my precious boy
Don't [A] struggle like that, or I will only love you more
For it's [C#m] much too late to get away or turn on the light
The [A] spiderman is having you for dinner tonight"

BRIDGE:
And I [F#m] feel like I'm being eaten
By a thousand million shivering furry [A] holes
And I [F#m] know that in the morning
I will wake up in the shivering [A] cold
And the spiderman is always hungry

BREAK: [C#m] [A] : [x6]
