Dm G
I heard he sang a good song,
Dm F
I heard he had a style
G Am
And so I came to see him to listen for a while
Dm F C
And there he was this young boy
Cmaj7 E
A stranger to my eyes…
Chorus:
Am Dm
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
G C
Singing my life with his words,
Am Dm
Killing me softly with his song,
Dm G F
Killing me softly with his song,
C G
Telling my whole life with his words
B
Killing me softly
A
With his song!
I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he´d found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on
Chorus:
He sang as if he knew me
In all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me
As if I wasn´t there
But he was there, this stranger,
He´s singing clear and loud
Chorus:
