I Shot The Sheriff (Live) Bob Marley & The Wailers

[Intro]
(I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy, no, no, no)
(I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy)

[Verse 1]
All around in my home town
They trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the life of a deputy
For the life of a deputy
But I say

[Chorus]
I shot the sheriff
(I shot the sheriff)
But I swear it was
(But I swear it was in self-defense)
I swear it was in self-defense, yeah
It was I who shot the sheriff
(I shot the sheriff, and they say it is a capital offense)
And they say it is a capital offense

[Verse 2]
Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what I don't know
Every time I plant a seed
He said, "Kill them before the grow"
He said, "Kill them before they grow, now"
And so….and so
