	  		verse 1:  
  
	Em                        Am 
	I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth  
	Em                           Am 
	You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth  
        G                        Em         Am  
	She's got a pad down at 34th and Vine  
        Am 
	Sellin' little bottles of  
        B7                  Em  
	Love Potion Number Nine  
  
verse 2:  
  
	I told her that I was a flop with chicks  
	I'd been this way since 1956

	Love Potion Number Nine"

	She said "I'm gonna make it up right here in the sink"  
            Am  
	It smelled like turpentine and looked like India ink  
           B7 tacit                   B7 tacit 
	I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink  
  
verse 3:  
  
	I didn't know if it was day or night
