              G                         C                  G 
I wish I was a rich man a living on Cadillac lane 
 
                            C               G 
And I'd tour the world in a great big shiny plane 
 
    C                                               G 
I'd go to all the famous places like Italy Rome and Spain 
 
                      D7                 G 
If I was a rich man a living on Cadillac lane 
 
 
                          C                  G 
I wish I was a rich man a living on Cadillac lane 
 
                              C                 G 
I'd had my own private car on some big railroad train 
 
    C                                        G 
I'd never have to work again for the doggone thing 
 
                      D7                 G 
If I was a rich man a living on Cadillac lane 
 
 
                                 C                  G 
Well there's a lotta rich people living on Cadillac lane 
 
                    C                 G 
Eating caviar and a drinking pink champagne 
 
    C                                        G 
But I've got your love and to me that's everything 
 
                              D7                 G 
And I'm not so sure about the people on Cadillac lane 
 
 
G                         C                  G 
I wish I was a rich man a living on Cadillac lane 
 
                            C               G 
And I'd tour the world in a great big shiny plane 
 
    C                                               G 
I'd go to all the famous places like Italy Rome and Spain 
 
                      D7                 G 
If I was a rich man a living on Cadillac lane
