The Spider and the Fly by the Rolling Stones
from the album, ^ÓStripped^Ô, 1996.
Words and music by M. Jagger and K. Richards(whoever they are)
transcribed and submitted by Vance Augustine


The song is pretty simple. It^Òs your basic 3 chord blues. What really
makes the song is the
little walking riff they do with the guitars. On every E7 chord play it
like this

E--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0-
B--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0-
G--1---------2----------4------------2----------1----------2----------4-
D--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0-
A--2---------4----------5------------4----------2----------4----------5-
E--0---------0----------0------------0----------0----------0----------0-

Hit each chord form on the beat, hold the last one for two beats

Then on the A7 drop down to this

E--0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0--
B--2----------3----------5----------3----------2----------3----------5--
G--0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0--
D--2----------4----------5----------4----------2----------4----------5--
A--0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0----------0--
E--x----------x----------x----------x----------x----------x----------x-

Put it all together and it goes like this:
