Killing Me Softly With Her Song

C#m          F#
I heard she sang a good song,
B           E
I heard she had a style.
C#m       F#
And so I came to see her
G#m
And listen for a while.
C#m            F#
And there she was this young girl,
B             D#7
A stranger to my eyes.


[Chorus]
G#m                          C#m
Strumming my pain with her fingers,
F#                        B
Singing my life with her words,
G#m                     C#m
Killing me softly with her song,
            F#          E
Killing me softly with her song,
            B               E
Telling my whole life with her 
words,
            A
Killing me softly
          G#
With her song

[Verse]
C#m          F#
I felt all flushed with fever,
B           E
Embarrassed by the crowd,
C#m        F#
I felt she found my letters
G#m
And read each one out loud.
C#m            F#
I prayed that she would finish
B                 D#7
But she just kept right on.


[Chorus]
G#m                          C#m
Strumming my pain with her fingers,
F#                        B
Singing my life with her words,
G#m                     C#m
Killing me softly with her song,
            F#          E
Killing me softly with her song,
            B               E
Telling my whole life with her 
words,
            A
Killing me softly
          G#
With her song


[Verse]
C#m         F#
She sang as if she knew me
B         E
In all my dark despair
C#m          F#
And then she looked right through me
G#m
As if I wasn't there.
C#m           F#
But she just came to singing,
B              D#7
Singing clear and strong.


[Chorus]
G#m                          C#m
Strumming my pain with her fingers,
F#                        B
Singing my life with her words,
G#m                     C#m
Killing me softly with her song,
            F#          E
Killing me softly with her song,
            B               E
Telling my whole life with her 
words,
            A
Killing me softly
          G#
With her song
