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.
