[Bbm] _ I [Eb] heard he sang a good [Ab]
song, _ [Fm] I heard he had a [Bbm]
style
And so I [G] came to [Fm] see him, to listen for a while _
And [Bbm] [Eb] there he was, this young [Cm] boy, a [C] stranger to my [Fm] eyes
Strumming my [Bbm] pain with his fingers, _
[F] [Bbm] singing my [Cm] life with his _ words
[Fm] Killing me softly [Bb] with his song, [Eb] killing me softly _ [Db] with his song
[Ab] Telling my whole life [Db] with his words, killing [Gb] me softly _ _ _ with [F] his song _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bbm] I _ [Eb] felt all flushed with fever, [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Fm] embarrassed by the crowd
[Db] _ I [Bbm] felt he found [G] my [Fm] letters and read each one aloud
I [Db] _ _ _ [Eb] prayed that he would _
[G] [Cm] finish, but [C] he just kept right [Fm] on
Strumming my pain [Db] with his fingers, _
[G] _ singing [Cm] my life with his [Ab] words
[Eb] _
[Fm] _ Killing me [Bb] softly with his song, [Eb] killing me softly _ [Db] with his song

[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ He sang as if he knew [Eb] me, _ [Fm] in all my darkest [Bbm] fear
_ _ And [Eb] then he looked right through [Fm] me, if I wasn't _ [Eb] there
[Db] _ But [Eb] he was there, the stranger, [Cm] _ _ [C] singing clear and [Ab] strong
Strumming my pain [Bbm] with his fingers, _
_ [Eb] singing my [Ab] life with his words
[Fm] Killing me softly [Bb] with his song, killing [Eb] me softly [Db] with his song
