Killing Me softly by the reigate pilgrim band.
Dm7 G C F
i heard he sang good song, i heard he had style,
Dm7 G Am
and so i came to see him, to listen for a while
Dm7 G C E7
and there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes.
Chorus
Am F G C
strumming my pain with his fingers, singing my life with his words,
Am D G F
Killing me softly with his song, killing me softly with his song.
C F
Telling my whole life with his words,
Bb A
Killing me softly with his song.
Dm7 G C F
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd,
Dm7 G Am
i felt he`d found my letters and read each one out loud
Dm7 G C E7
i prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on. (chorus)
Dm7 G C F
He sang as if he knew me, in all dark despair,
Dm7 G Am
and then he looked right throught me, as if i wasn`t there.
Dm7 G C E7
But he was there, this stranger, singing clear and strong. (chorus)
