Intro: Am G F Am G F Verse 1: Am G F Am G F It's four in the morning and I'm layin' with my head against the toilet seat Am G F Am G F For several days now I've been livin' here, too tired to sleep, too sick to eat Am G F I feel like a monster and it doesn't help that you will treat me like I've got the Am G F Venom on my teeth
Chorus: C 'Cause I'm the spider in your bathroom Em I'm the shadow on the tile Am I came for shelter from the cold Em And I'd thought I'd stay a while Am Em I'm only small and lonely, weak Am And you jump at the sight of me C Em You'll kill me when I least expect it Am Am G God, how could I even think of daring to exist? F Am G F Looking just like this, I'm hideous Verse 2: Am G I'm nothing but legs, they used to say F I'm nothing but skin and bones these days Am G F You dangle me high over the drain and tell me I'm lucky you don't drop me there and Am G Let me wash away F Or put me on display Am G F By trapping me forever between a glass and a dinner plate Chorus: C Em 'Cause I'm the spider in your kitchen weaving webs through every year Am Em And I worked real hard on the last one but the last one got me here C Em I'm minding my own business but my presence makes you curse Am Em I should be getting better but I'm only getting worse C Em And, God, how dare I even think of choosing here to die? Am 'Cause then I'm just a problem that you have to take outside Am Em Am And I know you hate the sight of me, I haunt you when you're fast asleep C Em Am I've got eight legs, a million eyes, if only I had eight more lives C Em Am 'Cause I'm just a spider on the ceiling and you're nothing but a guy C Em Am You don't like it when I cry, you would break me if you tried Am G F And you will because I dared to be alive
