I SHOT THE SHERIFF
MARLEY, BOB
1973
/Am /Dm7 /Am
Ref.: I shot the sheriff - but I didn't shoot no deputy
/Am /Dm7 /Am
I shot the sheriff - but I didn't shoot no deputy
/F /E7 /Am
1. All around in my hometown
/F /E7 /Am
They're trying to drag me down
/F /E7 /Am
They say they want to bring me in guilty
/F /E7 /Am
For the killing of a deputy
/F /E7 /Am
For the life of a deputy - well I say
Ref.: I shot the sheriff - But I sware it was in self-defence
I shot the sheriff - And they say it is a capital event
2. Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what I don't know
Every time I planned to seed
He said, "Kill it before it grows"
He said, "Kill them before they grow" - and so
Ref.: I shot the sheriff - But I sware it was in self-defence
I shot the sheriff - But I sware it was in self-defence
3. Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
Came in to shoot me down
!R!scpi 11;So I shot, I shot, I shot him down - and I say if I am guilty, I will pay!R!scpi 10;slpi 6;
Ref.: I shot the sheriff - But I didn't shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff - But I didn't shoot no deputy
4. Reflexes are the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket a go a well
One day the bottom a go drop out
One day the bottom a go drop out - I say
Ref.: I shot the sheriff - But I didn't shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff - But I didn't shoot no deputy
