(Em)Strumming my pain with (Am)his fingers
(D7)Singing my life with (G)his words
(Em)Killing me softly with (A)his song 
Killing me (D)softly with (C)his song
Telling my (G)whole life with (C)his words
Killing me (Esus)softly with his (E)song.   

(Am7)I heard he sang (D7)a good song
(G)I heard he (C)had a style
(Am7)And so i (D)came to see him
And (Em)listen for a while
(Am7)And there he (D7)was this young boy
(G)A stranger (B7)to my eyes...

(Em)Strumming my pain with (Am)his fingers
(D7)Singing my life with (G)his words
(Em)Killing me softly with (A)his song 
Killing me (D)softly with (C)his song
Telling my (G)whole life with (C)his words
Killing me (Esus)softly with his (E)song.   

(Am7)I felt all (D)flushed with fever
(G)Embarrassed (C)by the crowd
(Am7)I felt he (D)found my letters
And (Em)read each one out loud
(Am7)I prayed that (D7)he would finish
(G)But he just (B7)kept right on....

(Em)Oh... (A)
(D)La la (G)la la la la...
(Em)Woh... (A)
(D)Lah...  (C)
(G)Woh...  (C)

(Fmaj7)Lah...
(E)Lah...
