Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers D7 G singing my life with his words Em A killing me softly with his song D C killing me softly with his song G C telling my whole life with his words. Esus4 Killing me softly E with his song. [Verse] Am7 D I heard he sang a good song G C I heard he had a style Am7 D and so I came to see him Em to listen for a while. Am7 D7 And there he was this young boy G B7 a stranger to my eyes. [Chorus] Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers D7 G singing my life with his words Em A killing me softly with his song D C killing me softly with his song G C telling my whole life with his words. Esus4 Killing me softly E with his song. [Verse] 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. [Chorus] Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers D7 G singing my life with his words Em A killing me softly with his song D C killing me softly with his song G C telling my whole life with his words. Esus4 Killing me softly E with his song. [Verse] Am7 D He sang as if he 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. [Chorus] Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers D7 G singing my life with his words Em A killing me softly with his song D C killing me softly with his song G C telling my whole life with his words. Esus4 Killing me softly E with his song. Em Am Ooooh oooh, D7 G Ooooh, ooooh Em A La la la, la la la D C Ooooh oooh G C Esus4 Laaaaah... E Laaaaaaah Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers D7 G singing my life with his words Em A killing me softly with his song D C killing me softly with his song G C telling my whole life with his words. Esus4 Killing me softly E [Ending] Em Am He was strumming my pain D7 G Yeah, he was singing my life Em A killing me softly with his song D C killing me softly with his song G C telling my whole life with his words. Esus4 Killing me softly E with his song.
