: I Shot The Sheriff

1. Ami 
I shot the 
Dmi 
sheriff, but I did not shoot the 
Ami 
deputy

I shot the sheriff, Dmi 
but I did not shoot the 
Ami 
deputy


Dmi 
All aro
Emi 
und in my ho
Ami 
me town

Dmi 
They're trying to 
Emi 
track me 
Ami 
down

Dmi 
They say they want to
Emi 
 bring me in gu
Ami 
ilty

For the Dmi 
killing of a 
Emi 
deputy
Ami 
 

For the Dmi 
life of a 
Emi 
deputy
Ami 
 But I say


2. I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff, and they say it is a capital offense

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what I don't know
Every time that I plant a seed
He said "Kill it before it grows"
He said "Kill it before it grows" I say! 

3. I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town yeah
All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down I say! 

4. I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy

Reflexes got the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket falls 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 did not shoot the deputy, oh no
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy, oh no

Ride all the way to the end of the line thinkin' only you

Meanwhile livin' in the cityJust about to go insane
All I heard my baby Lord wishin' you would call my name
If I ever get back to stay it's gonna be another brand new day
Walkin with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay 
Walkin with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay 
Yeah, walkin with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay

: Tears In Heaven

1. Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven

R: I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven

2. Would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand if I saw you in heaven

R: I'll find my way through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven

Bridge: Time can bring you down,
time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart
have you beggin please beggin please

R: Beyond the door there's peace for sure
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven

3. Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven
Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven

R: I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven
