(Verse)
(Em)Jay Michael Adams, thirty five, Kentucky born and he sur-(D)vived
By his wife (A/C#) and (G)three (Em)boys, good lord
(Em)Plain wooden casket, peace Lillies in a wicker basket
Dry (D)eyes it's no surprise, (A/C#) (G)(Em) he was living on borrowed time

(Pre-Chorus)
(Em) Who did (D)it, who done (D)did (C#)it (B)(G)
Some-(Em)body took one for the team
(Em)Who did (D)it, who done (D)did (B)it (G)
(Em)Never gonna find out it was me

(Chorus)
She (G)called me up at (A)quarter past three
(Em) Big sister he hit me
E-(G)nough is enough, said (A)give me fifteen
(Em) 'Cause bloods thicker than whiskey
I (G)waited long enough till he was (A)blackout drunk
Cinder (Em)block on the pedal, threw him (D)in his truck
(G)Ashes to ashes and (A)dust to dust
(Em)Who did (D)it, who done did (D)it (C#)(B)
(G) Never (Em)gonna find out it was me
(Em)Who did (D)it, who done (D)did (B)it (G)
(Em)Take it to the grave baby, rest in peace

(Verse)
His (Em)momma's still crying, and the preacher keeps on lying
No he was not (D) a man of God (A/C#)
'Cause he'd been (Em)caught too many times
He was a (Em)thief and a cheater, a natural born deceiver
But the (D)moment that he (A/C#)beat her, his (Em)ass was mine

(Chorus)
She (G)called me up at (A)quarter past three
(Em) Big sister he hit me
E-(G)nough is enough, said (A)give me fifteen
(Em) ‘Cause bloods thicker than whiskey
I (G)waited long enough till he was (A)blackout drunk
Cinder (Em)block on the pedal, threw him (D)in his truck
(G)Ashes to ashes and (A)dust to dust
(Em)Who did (D)it, who done did it
(G)Never (Em)gonna find out it was me (D)
(Em)Who did (D)it, who done did (B)it (G)
(Em)Take it to the grave baby, rest in peace
