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

[Verse]

Am7           D
   I felt all flushed with fever
Gmaj7            C
     embarrassed by the crowd.
Am7          D
   I felt he found my letters
    Em
and read each one out loud.
Am7              D7
   I prayed that he would finish
Gmaj7             B7
      but he just kept right on.

singing my life with his words
Em                     A/C#
killing me softly with his song
           D           C
killing me softly with his song

telling my whole life with his words.

Killing me softly
         E

[Verse]

Am7           D
   He sang as if he knew me
Gmaj7        C
   in all my dark despair.
Am7             D
    And then he looked right through me
   Em
as if I wasn't there.
Am7            D7
   And he just kept on singing
Gmaj7         B7
      singing clear and strong.
