[Fm] I heard [Bb] she sang a good [Eb] song, I heard [Ab] she had a style
[Fm] And so I [Bb]
came to see her, [Cm] to listen for a while
And [Fm] there [Bb] she was, this young [Eb] girl, stranger [G] to my [Cm] eyes
Strumming my pain with [Fm] her fingers, [Bb] singing my life with [Eb] her words
[Cm] Killing me softly [F] with her song, killing [Bb] me softly [Fm] with her [Ab] song
Telling [Eb] my whole life [Ab] with her words, killing [Db] me softly
[G]
[Db] With [C] her song
I [Fm] felt [Bb] all flushed with fever, [Eb] embarrassed [Ab]
by the crowd
I felt [Bb] she found my letters [Cm] and read each one out loud
[Fm] I prayed [Bb] that she would [Eb] finish, but she [G] just kept right [Cm] on
Strumming my pain with [Fm] her fingers, [Bb] singing my life with [Eb] her words
[Cm] Killing me softly [F] with her song, killing [Bb] me softly [Ab] with her song
Telling [Eb] my whole life [Ab] with her words, killing [Db] me softly
[G]
[Db] With [C] her song
She [Fm] sang [Bb] as if she knew [Eb] me, in all my [Ab] darkness fell
[Fm] And then [Bb] she looked right through [Eb] me as if I [Cm] wasn't there
[Fm] But she [Bb] was there, this stranger, [Eb] singing [G]
clear and [Cm] strong
Strumming my pain with [Fm] her fingers, [Bb] singing my life with [Eb] her words
[Cm] Killing me softly [F] with her song, killing [Bb] me softly [Ab] with her song
Telling [Eb] my whole life [Ab] with her words, killing [Db] me softly
