I shot the sheriff

Song composer: Bob Marley

Lyrics author: Bob Marley

		Abm
		I shot the sheriff,

		C#m	Abm
		but I did not shoot the	deputy.

	E	Ebm	Abm
	All a	round in my	home town

	E	Ebm	Abm
they're	trying to	track me	down.

	E	Ebm	Abm
They	say they want to	bring me in	guilty

	E	Ebm	Abm
for the	killing of a	deputy,

	E	Ebm7	Abm
for the	killing of a	deputy,

	Abm
But I say:

I shot the sheriff,

but I swear it was in selfdefence.

Sheriff John Brown always hated me

for what I don't know.

Ev'ry time that I plant a seed

he said "Kill it before it grow," (deux fois)

But I say:

I shot the sheriff,

but I swear it was in selfdefence.

Freedom came my way one day

and I started out of town.

All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown,

aiming to shoot me down.

So I shot, I shot him down.

But I say:

I shot the sheriff,

but I swear it was in selfdefence.

Reflexes got the better of me

and what is to be must be.

Ev'ry day the bucket goes to the well,

but one day the bottom will drop out,

yes one day the bottom will drop out.

But I say:

I shot the sheriff,

but I swear it was in selfdefence.

Go back
