[Verse 1]
Dm A# Dm A# Dm
A#
I just had the strangest day of my life
Dm A#
Worse than the last week with my first wife
Gm
I let John borrow my truck
F
He said he needed to get some stuff
Gm
To pay some bills
[Verse 2]
Dm A# Dm
Nome ain't a city, it's barely a town
A#
For a place so pretty, it could bring you way down
Gm
He kept his huntin' knife titanium-clipped
F
To a nylon belt set high on his hip
Gm A
For self-defense
[Chorus]
Dm C A#
It was a regular mornin'
Dm C A#
No red flags or warnings
Gm
No, nothin' suspicious
A
Wasn't I payin' attention?
[Verse 3]
Dm A# Dm
I didn't see the full gas can he'd set in the seat
A#
I just nodded and tossed him the keys
Gm
Did I see shakin' in his hands?
F
Was he makin' darker plans
Gm
Than usual?
[Verse 4]
Dm A#
John had been clean for over a year now
Dm A#
We all thought he was in the clear now
Gm
But it wasn't God talkin' to him that day
F
It was a beast that never goes away
Gm A
It sleeps in your brain
[Chorus]
Dm C A#
It was a regular mornin'
Dm C A#
No red flags or warnings
Gm
No, nothin' suspicious
A
Wasn't I payin' attention?
Dm A# Dm A#
[Verse 5]
Dm A#
Every Sunday was another doomsday
Dm A#
He'd say "Last Judgement's not far away"
Gm
He talked about evil in his blood
F
He spoke of fire, he spoke of floods
Gm
That's how he was
[Chorus]
Dm C A#
It was a regular mornin'
Dm C A#
No red flags or warnings
Gm
No, nothin' suspicious
A
Wasn't I payin' attention?
Dm C A#
It was a regular mornin'
Dm C A#
No red flags or warnings
Gm
No, nothin' suspicious
A Dm
Wasn't I payin' attention?
[Verse 6]
A#
John drove my truck down to the square
Dm A#
He thought he would end it all right there
Gm
He took off his coat, doused himself in gas
F
Slit his own throat, climbed back into the cab
Gm A
And lit the match
