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