Murderer Chords & Lyrics - The Kooks

[VERSE 1]
She's a [Am]murderer, but who planted the [Dm]seed?
The pastor [Am]baptized her,but the deed he could [Dm]not clean.
The father tried to be a g[Am]ood man,and the mother kept [Dm]her child.

[CHORUS 1]
[Dm]He cried and [Em]begged and [Am]wept,
[Dm]As she pierced [Em]the knife through his [Am]heart,
[Dm]But who could [Em]blame the c[Am]hild,
[G]To cast the first stone.
Oh, now she's a [Am]murderer.
Now she's a [Dm]murderer.

[VERSE 2]
She was always [Am]looking for a way out [Dm]not in.
[C]The church became her [Am]prison, for her it only held [Dm]sin.
She cried, "Daddy, why am [Am]I so sad? I've never done nothing [Dm]wrong."
He said, "You got the blood of an [Am]evil man, but you've got to stay [Dm]strong"

[CHORUS 2]
She watched as he c[Dm]ried and [Em]begged and [Am]wept,
As [Dm]she pierced the [Em]knife through his [Am]heart,
But [Dm]who could b[Em]lame the c[Am]hild,
To c[G]ast the first stone.
Oh, now she's a [Am]murderer. Now she's a murd[Dm]erer. [Em]

[VERSE 3]
[Am] [Dm] [C]
[Am] [Dm]
She cried, "Daddy, why am [Am]I so sad? I've never done nothing [Dm]wrong."
He said, "You got the blood of an [Am]evil man, but you've got to stay [Dm]strong, strong, strong, strong!."

[BRIDGE]

[Am]Jesus is my Buddha, and B[Dm]uddha is Muhammad,
[Am]Buddha is my Jesus, and nothi[Dm]ng will divide us. [C]

[CHORUS 3]

He [Dm]cried and b[Em]egged and w[Am]ept,
As she[Dm] pierced the k[Em]nife through his h[Am]eart,
But w[Dm]ho could bl[Em]ame the chi[Am]ld,
To c[G]ast the first stone oh,to cast the first stone.
Oh, now she's [Am]a murderer, now she's [Dm]a murderer.

Am, Dm, C [fade out]
