Spider's Web, Quick Record for Learning

"Spider's Web" is a favorite of all girl's camp goers.  This was recorded quick, the two separate parts, so that my friend Sue could review for girls camp coming up this week.

I will post with the parts combined when I get a few of my daughters together.

It's A Web, Like A Spider's Web (Spider's Web), (quick practice)

Young Love, sung by Grandkids and Great Grandkids of Grandpa $


YOUNG LOVE (Key of C)
Intro – C x 4 bars (16 counts)

1st verse
                     C
She was sitting cross-legged on a hood of a Ford
Filing down her nails with an emery board
                       G
Talking to her friends about people they knew
And all of the things that young girls do
                                C
When she said, "You see that guy in the baseball cap?
I'd like to spend some time with a boy like that."
                     G
Betty said, "I've seen him at the hardware store.
I think his name is Billy, but I'm not sure."
                                        C
And as they talked a little while he passed by
She smiled at him he just said "Hi."
                                  G
He was thinking to himself as he walked away
Man, I'd like to find a girl like her someday

[Chorus]
           F                C                 G                       C
         Young love, strong love, true love, it's a new love
                                                 F                 C
They're gonna make it through the hard times, walk those lines
                         G                                     C         
                Yeah, these ties will bind,  young love

2nd verse
   C
Well, she just couldn't stop herself from thinking 'bout him
And at a store downtown she saw him again
                                  G
She had both hands full, he held open the door
He said, "My name is Billy. I've seen you before.
                             C
Can I help you with these? Can I give you a ride?
Can I take you out on a Saturday night?"
                           G
She didn't have to say what she was feeling inside
He could see the answer shining in her eyes

[Repeat Chorus]

3rd verse
     C
Well, from that day on you couldn't keep them apart
They were side by side, heart to heart
                      G
Mama cried as Billy slipped the ring on her hand
And when the baby was born she was crying again
                              C
Well, he worked real hard and put some money down
On a little old house at the edge of town
                            G
And that night as he held her he couldn't believe
That God had made a girl that he'd never ever leave

[Repeat Chorus]


(Halle solo)
       C
She was sitting cross-legged on the hood of a Ford
Filing down her nails with an emery board




End with same as intro, 4 bars of C, (16 counts)
