[Verse 1]

I guess I shot the sheriff, baby

If you want someone to blame

I don't want to play the game

This silly game

I guess I shot the sheriff, baby

If you want someone to blame

I don't want to play the game

This silly game

[Chorus]

Oh, I

What am I to do?

So I

Pulled the trigger on you

[Verse 2]

Rest your hand on my shoulders baby

Let me take away the pain

Yes I can be colder baby

If that's what it takes

Yep, I shot the sheriff, baby

If you want someone to blame

I don't want to play the game

This silly game

[Chorus]

Oh, I

What am I to do?

So I

Pulled the trigger on you

[Verse 3]

Now I am the sheriff, baby

I had to raise the stakes

I don't like to play the game

This silly game

[Chorus]

Oh, I

What am I to do?

So I

Pulled the trigger on you
