Two black Cadillacs meeting for the first time

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

Yeah they took turns laying a rose down
           C#
Threw a handful of dirt into the deep ground
D#                                        A#
He's not the only one who had a secret to hide

Bye bye, bye bye
                   C#
Two black Cadillacs, two black Cadillacs

Two months ago, his wife called the number
on his phone
Turns out he'd been lyin' to both of them
for oh so long
They decided then, he'd never get away
with doing this to them
Two black Cadillacs waiting for the right time,
the right time

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
(Two black Cadillacs)

A#
It was the first time and last time
                     Fm  D#  C#
they saw each other face to face
A#                                   Fm      D# C#
They shared a crimson smile and just walked away
And left the secret at the grave

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, yeah, yeah
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, yeah
