[Verse]~

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#7

And there she was this young girl,..



B G#m

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#m

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#7

I prayed that she would finish



B G#m

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#m

With her song





[Verse]~

C#m F#m

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#7

But she just came to singing,..



B G#m

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#m

With her song
