Locked Into Green Lyrics by Graham Parker

Locked Into Green Lyrics

    pre>(the subject of this song, william wittmam informs us, is snooker.)

    G dm em c
    I find i fall into each night what passes for a dream
    G dm em c
    But all i see are pinks and blacks and i don't know what they mean
    Cm gm bm e
    My opponent's got the edge but his face just can't be seen
    E c d g c g
    And i...........'m locked into green

    I been up since 8 oclock smoking endless cigarettes
    And i'll be at the table as the bookies take their bets
    A shot of drink to steady nerves and i'll wipe that table clean
    And i...........'m locked into green

    C g
    Reds and blues, yellows, greens and browns
    C d
    If i keep my eye in i will put them down
    Cm gm bm e
    There's other ways of life out there but there's nothing they could mean
    E c d g f e
    Because i...........'m locked into green
    E c d g c g
    Oh i...........'m locked into green
    G g c g g g c g
    I'm locked into green, i'm locked into green
    G g
    I'm locked into green /pre>
