I remember when Mary Lou said,
You want to walk me home from [A] school?
I said, [E]
Yes I do.
She said, I don't have to go right home,
And I would kind of like to [D] be [A] alone with some of you.
[Bm] I [E] said, Me too.
[B] And so we took a stroll,
Wound up down by the [A] swimming hole.
She said, Do what [E] you want to do.
[B] I got silly and found a frog,
In the water by a hollow [A] log,
And I shook it at her,
And I said, This [E] frog's for you.
She said, I [Bm] don't like spiders and snakes,
[E] And that [Em] ain't what it [A] takes to love me.
Mmm-mmm [E]-mmm.
I don't [G] like spiders and snakes,
[E] And that ain't what [Em] it takes to love me.
Like I want to be loved by you.

[A]
[E] Well, I look at that girl from time to time,
I call her up when I got time,
I [A] say, Hello baby.
She said, Ain't [Em] you cool?
[E] I said, Do you remember when,
And would you like to get together again?
She [A] said, I'd see you after [E] school.
I [B] was shy and so for a while,
Most of my love was touching smiles.
[A] She said, Come on over [E] here.
[B] I was nervous that you might guess,
Still looking for something to slip down your dress.
[A] She said, Let's make it [E] perfectly clear.
She [G] said, I don't like spiders and [E] snakes,
And that ain't what it takes [A] to love me.
[Em] Mmm-mmm-mmm.
I don't like spiders and [E] snakes,
And that ain't what it [A] takes to love me.
[Em] Like I want to be loved [E] by you.
