[Verse 1]
Am Dm
She's a murderer, but who planted the seed?
Am Dm
The pastor baptized her,but the deed he could not clean.
Am Dm
The father tried to be a good man,and the mother kept her child.
[Chorus 1]
Dm Em Am
He cried and begged and wept,
Dm Em Am
As she pierced the knife through his heart,
Dm Em Am
But who could blame the child,
G
To cast the first stone.
Am
Oh, now she's a murderer.
Dm
Now she's a murderer.
[Verse 2]
Am Dm
She was always looking for a way out not in.
C Am Dm
The church became her prison, for her it only held sin.
Am Dm
She cried, "Daddy, why am I so sad? I've never done nothing wrong."
Am Dm
He said, "You got the blood of an evil man, but you've got to stay strong"
[Chorus 2]
Dm Em Am
She watched as he cried and begged and wept,
Dm Em Am
As she pierced the knife through his heart,
Dm Em Am
But who could blame the child,
G
To cast the first stone.
Am Dm Em
Oh, now she's a murderer. Now she's a murderer.
[Verse 3]
Am Dm C
Am Dm
Am Dm
She cried, "Daddy, why am I so sad? I've never done nothing wrong."
Am Dm
He said, "You got the blood of an evil man, but you've got to stay strong, strong, strong, strong!."
[Bridge]
Am Dm
Jesus is my Buddha, and Buddha is Muhammad,
Am Dm C
Buddha is my Jesus, and nothing will divide us.
[Chorus 3]
Dm Em Am
He cried and begged and wept,
Dm Em Am
As she pierced the knife through his heart,
Dm Em Am
But who could blame the child,
G
To cast the first stone oh,to cast the first stone.
Am Dm
Oh, now she's a murderer, now she's a murderer.
Am, Dm, C [fade out]
