INTRO: Fm C#
Fm C#
Two black Cadillacs driving in a slow parade
Fm C#
Headlights shining bright in the middle of the day
Ab Eb
One is for his wife,
Fm C#
The other for the woman who loved him at night
Ab Eb Fm C#
Two black Cadillacs meeting for the first time
[Chorus:]
Fm
And the preacher said he was a good man
C#
And his brother said he was a good friend
Eb Bb
But the women in the two black veils didn’t bother to cry
Bye, Bye Bye, Bye
Fm
Yeah they took turns laying a rose down
C#
Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground
Eb Bb
He’s not the only one who had a secret to hide
Bye bye, bye bye, bye Bye
Fm C#
Two black Cadillacs, two black Cadillacs
Fm C#
Two months ago his wife called the number on his phone
Fm C#
Turns out he’d been lying to both of them for oh so long
Ab Eb Fm C#
They decided then he’d never get away with doing this to them
Ab Eb Fm C#
Two black Cadillacs waiting for the right time, right time
(SAME CHORDS )
[Chorus:]
And the preacher said he was a good man
And his brother said he was a good friend
But the women in the two black veils didn’t bother to cry
Bye bye, Bye bye
Yeah they took turns laying a rose down
Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground
He’s not the only one who had a secret to hide
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Yeah yeah

[Bridge:]
Bb Fm Eb C#
It was the first and the last time they saw each other face to face
Bb Fm Eb C#
They shared a crimson smile and just walked away
And left the secret at the grave
(SAME CHORDS)
[Chorus:]
And the preacher said he was a good man
And his brother said he was a good friend
But the women in the two black veils they didn’t bother to cry
Bye bye, Bye bye
Yeah they took turns laying a rose down
Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground
He’s not the only one who had a secret to hide
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
