[chorus] Em Am D7 G Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words. Em Am D C Killing me softly with his song. Killing me softly with his song. G C Telling my whole life with his words. Fmaj7 E Killing me softly, 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 and listen for a while. Am7 D7 And there he was this young boy, G B7 a stranger to my eyes. [chorus] Em Am D7 G Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words. Em Am D C Killing me softly with his song. Killing me softly with his song. G C Telling my whole life with his words. Fmaj7 E Killing me softly, 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 D7 G Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words. Em Am D C Killing me softly with his song. Killing me softly with his song. G C Telling my whole life with his words. Fmaj7 E Killing me softly, with his song. [chorus] Em Am D7 G Strumming my pain with his fingers. Singing my life with his words. Em Am D C Killing me softly with his song. Killing me softly with his song. G C Telling my whole life with his words.
