Am7 D
I heard she sang a good song,
G C
I heard she had a style,
Am7 D
And so I came to see her,
Em
To listen for a while . . .
Am7 D7
And there she was this young girl,
G B7
A stranger to my eyes . . .
Em Am
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
D7 G
Singin' my life with her words,
G A
Killing me softly with her song,
D C
Killing me softly, with her song,
G C
Telling my whole life with her words,
Esus4 E
Killing me softly, with her song . . .

Am7 D
I felt all flushed with fever,
G C
Embarrassed by the crowd,
Am7 D
I felt she found my letters,
Em
And read each one aloud . . .
Am7 D7
I prayed that she would finish,
G B7
But she just kept right on . . .
Em Am
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
D7 G
Singin' my life with her words,
G A
Killing me softly with her song,
D C
Killing me softly, with her song,
G C
Telling my whole life with her words,
Esus4 E
Killing me softly, with her song . . .
Am7 D
She sang as if she knew me,
G C
In all my dark despair,
Am7 D
And then she looked right through me,
Em
As if I wasn't there . . .
Am7 D7
But she was there, this stranger,
G B7
Singing clear and strong . . .
Em Am
Strummin' my pain with her fingers,
D7 G
Singin' my life with her words,
G A
Killing me softly with her song,
D C
Killing me softly, with her song,
G C
Telling my whole life with her words,
Esus4 E
Killing me softly, with her song . . .
Esus4 E
Killing me softly, with her song . . .
