Killing Me Softly

Bm                           Em
Strumming my pain with her fingers
A                          D
Singing my life with her words
Bm                       Em
Killing me softly with her song
             A            G
Killing me softly with her song
              D               G
Telling my whole life with her words
          C                 B
Killing me softly with her song


[Verse]

Em            A
I heard she sang a good song
D           G
I heard she had a style
Em           A              Bm
And so I came to see him to listen 
for awhile
Em              A                
And there she was this young 
D             F#
girl, a stranger to my eyes


Continues after the ad
[Chorus]

Bm                           Em
Strumming my pain with her fingers
A                          D
Singing my life with her words
Bm                       Em
Killing me softly with her song
             A            G
Killing me softly with her song
              D               G
Telling my whole life with her words
          C                 B
Killing me softly with her song


[Verse]

Em              A
I felt all flushed with fever
D             G
Embarrassed by the crowd
Em            A                   
I felt she found my letters and read
Bm
 each out one loud... oh
Em                A           D 
I prayed that she would finish 
              F#
but she just kept right on


[Chorus]

Bm                           Em
Strumming my pain with her fingers
A                          D
Singing my life with her words
Bm                       Em
Killing me softly with her song
             A            G
Killing me softly with her song
              D               G
Telling my whole life with her words
          C                 B
Killing me softly with her song
