Here's the lyrics and chords to Poison Ivy.
This is taken from the Coaster's 45 rpm reissue
with "Idol with the Golden Head" on the flip side.
I've changed the key from Ab to G.
The chord transpositions are at the end.


                Poison Ivy

           by  Lieber and Stoller

G  GFG  G  GFG


G                     GFG
She comes on like a rose           - verse
G                 GFG
but everybody knows
G                  GFG
she'll get you in Dutch
         G
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
