1. A black cavalcade winds it´s way through
the back streets,

flowers all lie on a wooden box,
G Bm
friends and relations set a
rose on the back seats,
E A
all looking shaky ‘cause it came as a shock
G Bm
A black cavalcade winds it´s way through the back streets,

destination in the final taxi.

threw all the flowers that
should lay on the top.

Cars pulled away in the garden
of rest,
E A
funeral tea
with twenty-five guests.
