The nickel song - Melanie

[G] Well you know that I'm not a gambler
But [C] I'm being gambled on
They put in a [G] nickel and I [D] sing a little [G] song

Dadada
They put in a nickel and I sing a little song

Well I don't mind that they're lucky
But it seems like they always win
And gambling is illegal in the state of mind I'm in

And if I had a nickel
For each time that I've been put on
I would be their nickel man and I'd sing a nickel song

You know they're [C] only putting in a [G] nickel
And they [D] want a dollar song, [G7] oh
They're [C] only putting in a [G] nickel
And they [D] want a dollar [G] song

Well you know I don't know so many tings
But I know what's been going on
We're only puttin' in a little
To get rid of a lot that's wrong

And if we had a nickel
For each time that we've been put on
We'd be their nickel men and we'd sing a nickel song

Oh you know they're only puttin' in a nickel
And they want a dollar song
Oooh, they're only puttin' in a nickel
And they want a dollar song

Well you know that I'm not a gambler
But I'm being gambled on
They put in a nickel and I sing a little song

Dadada
