[Verse 1] 0:15
E E7 E
I remember when Mary Lou said
E7 E
"You wanna walk me home from school"
A A7 E E7 G6 E7
Well I said, "Yes, I do"
E E7/B E
She said, "I don't have to go right home
E E7
And I would kinda like to be alone some
A A7 G6 ^ E E7 G6 E7
If you would" I said, "Me, too"
B B7
And so we took a stroll
B B7
Wound up down by the swimmin' hole
A A7 Asus2 E E7 G6 E7
And she said, "Do what you want to do"
B B7
I got silly and I found a frog
B B7
In the water by a hollow log
A
And I shook it at her
A7 Asus2 E E7 G6 E7
And I said "This frog's for you"
 
[Chorus] 1:02
E E7/B E E7/B
She said, "I don't like spiders and snakes
E E7/B E E7/B A
And that ain't what it takes to love me
A7 E E7 G6 E7
You fool, you fool
E E7/B E E7/B
I don't like spiders and snakes
E E7/B E E7/B A
And that ain't what it takes to love me
N.C. E
Like I want to be loved by you"

[Verse 2] 1:35
E E7/B
Well, I think of that girl from time to time
E E7/B
I call her up when I got a dime
E7 A
I say, "Hello, baby"
A7 E E7 G6 E7
Now, "Ain't you cool"
E
She said, "Do you remember when
E7 E
"And would you like to get together again"
A A7 E E7 G6 E7
She says, "I'll see you, after school"
B
I was shy and so for a while
B7 B
Most of my love was touch and smile
A A7 E E7 G6 E7
Til she said, "Come on over here"
B B7
I was nervous as you might guess
B B7
Still looking for somethin' to slip down her dress
A A7 E E7 G6 E7
And she said, "Let's make it perfectly clear"
 
[Chorus] 2:22
E E7/B E E7/B
She said, "I don't like spiders and snakes
E E7/B E E7/B A Asus2
And that ain't what it takes to love me
A7 E E7 G6 E7
You fool, you fool
E E/B E7/B E/B
I don't like spiders and snakes
E E7/B E E7/B A
And that ain't what it takes to love me
Asus2 Esus4/G E
Like I want to be loved by you"
