Bob Marley - I Shot The Sheriff




 Gm                 Cm
I shot the sheriff,
                          Gm
but I didn't shoot no deputy
      Cm
Oh, no, oh
 Gm                 Cm
I shot the sheriff,
                         Gm
but I didn't shoot no deputy
       Cm
Ooh, ooh, ooh Yeah

  D#    Dm          Gm
All around in my hometown
          D#         Dm            Gm
They're tryin' to track me down, yeah
       D#               Dm          Gm
They say they want to bring me in guilty
          D#          Dm  Gm
For the killing of a deputy,
            D#       Dm  Gm
for the life of a deputy
(riff.1)
But I say, oh, now, now...

Oh, I shot the sheriff,
but I swear it was in self defense
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I said, I shot the sheriff,
Oh Lord And they say it is a capital offense
Ooh, ooh, ooh Hear this

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what I don't know
Ev'ry time I plant a seed
He said, "Kill it before it grows."
He said, "Kill them before they grow."
And so, And so,

Read it in the news I shot the sheriff,
but I swear it was in self defense
Where was the deputy? Oh oh
I said I shot the sheriff
but I swear it was in self defense
ohoo

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah!
All of a sudden I saw Sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot, I shot him down
And I say, if I am guilty I will pay

I shot the sheriff,
but I say, but I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooh, no, oh
I shot the sheriff,
but I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooo, ooo, ooh

Reflexes had the better of me
And what is to be must be
Ev'ry 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,

I, I, I, I shot the sheriff,
but I didn't shoot the deputy,
no
I, I shot the sheriff,
but I didn't shoot the deputy,
no
