Version 1 Version 2[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# And there she was this young girl, B D#7 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# 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# I prayed that she would finish B D#7 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# With her song [Verse] C#m F# 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# But she just came to singing, B D#7 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# With her song
