She comes on like a rose - verse

she`ll get you in Dutch

you can look but you`d better not touch

Em Bm
Poison Ivy Poison Ivy - chorus
Em
Late at night while you`re sleeping
Bb Em D
Poison Ivy comes creeping around



She`s pretty as a daisy - verse

but look out man she`s crazy

she`ll really do you in

if you let her get under your skin


C
Measles make you mumpy - bridge

and mumps will make you lumpy
G
and chicken pox will make you

jump and switch
C
A common cold will fool you

and whooping cough can cool ya
D
But Poison Ivy lord will make you itch


Your gonna need an ocean - verse

of calamine lotion

You`ll be scratching like a hound

the minute you start to mess around


CHORUS - BRIDGE - REPEAT LAST VERSE - CHORUS

La la la la - verse

la la la la

la la la la
