Chords

[Chorus]
          G
 He's Cadillac Jack Favor and the name rings true,

       C7
     if he's got a ride any stranger would, too,

     G
    the one bad habit that his Ponder would say

          D
     is sure gonna put him through the trials one day.
[Verse]
              G
     And that's just what happened, he took pity on two men,

                    C7
     heading down to Louisiana, he stopped and let them in,

                     G
     and the thanks he did for helping them

                  D                                                            G
     would make him wish he was busting broncs again.

                                  C                                                G
    He dropped them off in Bossieer City where they met up with a man,

            F                                          D
    that vagabond commitee barely even had a plan.

                G                                                           C
    It was just a simple robbery turned double homicide,

              G                                            D                       G
    they got away with murder, it'd be someone else's hide.
[Chorus]
       G
    Almost two years come and gone, they never solved that crime,

                  C7
     'til they found one of our vagabonds already doing time,

                   G
 when that jailbird started singing, they all knew the words were wrong,

                     D
     but the sheriff and the DA and the judge all sang along.
[Verse]
              G
    They pinned it on Jack Favor, gave him life without parole

                         C7
    gave Jack's freedom to the jailbird, payment on the lies he told,

                G                                         D                                       G
   just so happens that election year everybody paid out at the polls.

            C7                                           G
    Cadillac's no fallen hero, and he's never gonna break,

                  F                                              D
    when it comes to prison rodeo, there'll be no easy eight.

                       G                                                             C
    And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame,

               G                                  D                            G
    it'd be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name.
[Solo] G C G D G [Outro]
            C7                                           G
    Cadillac's no fallen hero, and he's never gonna break,

                  F                                               D
    when it comes to prison rodeo, there's still no easy eight.

                       G                                                             C
    And if you want the definition of the picture-perfect frame,

               G                                  D                            G
    it'd be in the dictionary underneath Jack Favor's name.

                            G
    Yeah, it's the world's most crooked picture,

                                                   C
    and when it comes to being framed,

       G                                           D                   G
    Cadillac Jack Favor should be in the hall of fame.
