Killing Me Softly

Em                        Am        D7                       G
Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words
Em                     A                        D         C
Killing me softly with his song.  Killing me softly with his song
           G               C
Telling my whole life with his words
            Esus4             E
Killing me softly,  with his song

Am7            D
    I heard he sang the good song
G              C
    I heard he had a style
Am7           D
    And so I came to see him
        Em
    and listen for a while
Am7              D7
    And there he was a young boy
G             B7
   a stranger to my eyes

Em                        Am        D7                       G
Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words
Em                     A                        D         C
Killing me softly with his song.  Killing me softly with his song
           G               C
Telling my whole life with his words
            F                E
Killing me softly,  with his song

Am7            D
    I felt all flushed with fever
G               C
    embarrassed by the crowd
Am7           D
    I felt he found my letters
        Em
    and read each one out loud
Am7               D7
    I prayed that he would finish
G               B7
    but he just kept right on


Em                        Am        D7                       G
Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words
Em                     A                        D         C
Killing me softly with his song.  Killing me softly with his song
           G               C
Telling my whole life with his words
            F                E
Killing me softly,  with his song

Am7            D
    He sang as if knew me
G              C
    in all my dark despair
Am7              D
    And then he looked right through me
       Em
    as if I wasn't there
Am7             D7
    And he just kept on singing
G             B7
    singing clear and strong

Em                        Am        D7                       G
Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words
Em                     A                        D         C
Killing me softly with his song.  Killing me softly with his song
           G               C
Telling my whole life with his words
            F                E
Killing me softly,  with his song
