Love Potion No 9

verse 1: 
 
        Am                          Dm 
        I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth 
        Am                            Dm 
        You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth 
        C                                 Am 
        She's got a pad down at 34th and Vine 
        Dm 
        Sellin' little bottles of 
        E                   Am 
        Love Potion Number Nine 

verse 2: 
 
        I told her that I was a flop with chicks 
        I'd been this way since 1956 
        She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign 
        She said "What you need is 
        Love Potion Number Nine" 

bridge: 
 
             Dm 
        She bent down and turned around and gave me a wink 
             B7 
        She said "I'm gonna make it up right here in the sink" 
            Dm 
        It smelled like turpentine and looked like India ink 
           E 
        I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink 

verse 3: 
 
        I didn't know if it was day or night 
        I started kissin' everything in sight 
        But when I kissed the cop down at 34th and Vine 
        He broke my little bottle of 
        Love Potion Number Nine

outro:

        Love Potion Number Nine 
        Dm                  A   B   A   G    Am
