Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind Capo 2

Intro:

D


Verse 1:

D
We were poor when I was a youngin', I don't remember ever going hungry
G                               D
Daddy made sure we didn't do without I went to school with some of these fellas
                                 G                              D
They had money and I was jealous, I didn't know then what I know now
               A
Daddy'd say you can't judge a book by looking at its cover
    G                         A
It's what's inside that really matters

Chorus:

           G                D
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
             Bm    G                A
He said some things just glitter and shine
                 G            D         A              Bm
He taught us that love was the one thing money couldn't buy
            G      A        D
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind


Verse 2:

D
I left home right out of high school, got me a big car thought I was real cool
G                              D
Cruisin' around the old neighborhood, I'd see Daddy after church on Sunday
D
I'd say you'll have to go riding with me someday
  G                          D
He just said no, I never understood
   A
He asked me how I bought it, I told him on credit
G                               A
Daddy just smiled, I'll never forget it


Chorus:

           G                D
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
            Bm     G                A
He said some things just glitter and shine
                 G            D         A              Bm
He taught us that love was the one thing money couldn't buy
           G       A        D
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind


Bridge:

Bm
It took a while but now I'm grown
G
I've settled down with kids of my own
   Em                              A
The more I give them, the more they want


Verse 3:

D
Daddy left us last November
D
I don't remember him ever looking better
G                         D
All laid out in his Sunday best
D
I'm sure instead of all that attention
D
All he'd of wanted was a few words mentioned
  G                        D
A simple man simply laid to rest
        A
As they drove him away in that big Cadillac
      G                       A
With a tear in my eye I had to laugh


Chorus:

           G                D
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
            Bm     G                A
He said some things just glitter and shine
         G            D       A         Bm
Just this once, I hope Daddy enjoyed the ride
                  G   A            D
Cause, Daddy never was the Cadillac kind


Tag:
