Mandrake Root

(Blackmore/Evans/Lord)

From "Shades of Deep Purple", 1968


E7+9
I've got a Mandrake Root

       D             E7+9
It's a thunder in my brain


I feed it to my babe

    D                 E7+9
She thunders just the same

D       A   Bm        F#
Food of love sets her flame

G             A        B
Ah, stick it up


E7+9
I've got the Mandrake Root

D               E7+9
Baby's just the same


She still feels a quiver

D                   E7+9
She's still got the flame

D         A    Bm           F#
She slows down, slows right down

G     A        B
I've got the power
