Killing Me Softly With Her Song

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, Em A Killing me softly with her song, D C Killing me softly, with her song, G C Telling my whole life with her words, Fmaj7b5 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, Em A Killing me softly with her song, D C Killing me softly, with her song, G C Telling my whole life with her words, Fmaj7b5 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, Em A Killing me softly with her song, D C Killing me softly, with her song, G C Telling my whole life with her words, Fmaj7b5 E Killing me softly, with her song Fmaj7b5 E Killing me softly, with her song . . .
