Itsy Bitsy Spider - Harmonica Tabs & Lesson

Hello! In today's harmonica lesson we'll be playing the children's song 'Itsy Bitsy Spider' on a C diatonic harmonica. Simply follow the tabs on the screen to play along to the backing track.

Here are the tabs to Itsy Bitsy Spider:

-4 6 6 6 -6 -7 -7 -7 -6 6 -6 -7 6

The itsy bitsy spider climed up the water spout
  -7 -7 7 -8 -8 7 -7 7 -8 -7

Down came the rain and washed the spider out
  6 6 -6 -7 -7 -6 6 -6 -7 6

Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
  -4 -4 6 6 6 -6 -7 -7 -7 -6 6 -6 -7 6

And the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again

Alternative third line used in some versions (including the one I learned as a kid!):

8 8 8 -8 6 -6 -7 -6 6 5

Out came the sun and dried up all the rain

Thanks for studying with me today. I hope you enjoyed learning this song!
