GWe (320003@1)were poor when I was a youngin'

I don't remember ever going hungry
C (x32010@1)	     GDaddy (320003@1)made sure we didn't do without

I went to school with some of these fellas

They had money and I was jealous
C (x32010@1)	       GI (320003@1)didn't know then what I know now
		DDaddy'd (xx0232@1)say you can't judge a book by looking at its cover
     C (x32010@1)	       DIt's (xx0232@1)what's inside that really matters

CHORUS

C (x32010@1)     GDaddy (320003@1)never was the Cadillac kind
	     C (x32010@1)	     DHe (xx0232@1)said some things just glitter and shine
		  C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)C (x32010@1)GHe (320003@1)taught us that love was the one thing money couldn't buy
	    C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D		     GDaddy (320003@1)never was the Cadillac kind

GI (320003@1)left home right out of high school

Bought me a big car thought I was real cool
C (x32010@1)	GCruisin' (320003@1)around the old neighborhood

I'd see Dad after church on Sunday

I'd say you'll have to go riding with me someday
C (x32010@1)	      GHe (320003@1)just said no, I never understood
   DHe (xx0232@1)asked me how I bought it, I told him on credit
C (x32010@1)	      DDaddy (xx0232@1)just smiled, I'll never forget it

REPEAT CHORUS

EmIt (022000@1)took a while but now I'm grown
CI've (x32010@1)settled down with kids of my own

The more I give them
	      DThe (xx0232@1)more they want

GDaddy (320003@1)left us last November

I don't remember him ever looking better
C (x32010@1)	   GAll (320003@1)laid out in his Sunday best

I'm sure instead of all the attention

All he'd of wanted was a few words mentioned
  C (x32010@1)	    GA (320003@1)simple man simply laid to rest
	DAs (xx0232@1)they drove him away in that big Cadillac
       C (x32010@1)       DWith (xx0232@1)a tear in my eye I had to laugh

REPEAT CHORUS
