Em

[Verse 1]
Em
I am a murderer, I am the crowd
         Am                                      Em
I am the ones who held the nails and wrapped the shroud
             Am
I am the sword that pierced the side
                                 Em
And the cold blood that trickled down

[Verse 2]
Em
I am a murderer, I am the judge
        Am                      Em
I am as guilty as a sinner ever was
      Am
Yet I placed a crown of thorns on the blameless head
N.C.           Em
Of the King of love

[Chorus]
Em
I shouted, "Crucify, crucify"
Am           Em
 Now I cry, "Mercy, mercy"
Am                 C
 Yeah, I shouted, "Crucify, crucify"
Am        Em
 I am the murderer

[Verse 3]
Em
I am the murderer, he is the cure
         Am                              Em
I am the soldier at his feet amongst the poor
      Am
I now see he is the perfect son of God
         Em
I am the murderer

[Chorus]
Em
I shouted, "Crucify, crucify"
Am           Em
 Now I cry, "Mercy, mercy"
Am                 C
 Yeah, I shouted, "Crucify, crucify"
Am                Em
 Oh-ohh, I am the murderer

[Bridge]
N.C.        Em N.C.
Oh-ooh-oooh,   oh-ooh-oooh
Em N.C.       Em N.C.          C  Am
   Oh-ooh-oooh,  oh-ooh-oh-ooh

[Chorus]
            Em
I shouted, "Crucify, crucify" (remember me)
            C                Am
Now I cry, "Mercy, mercy" (remember me)
                   Em
Oh and I shouted, "Crucify, crucify" (remember me)
            C                Am
Now I cry, "Mercy, mercy" (remember me)
            Em
I am the murderer
