Killing Me Softly

Written by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel.

	  		
Intro: G#m C#m F# B G# C# F# E B E A G# (C#m F# - Four times)   

C#m          F#                 B             E              
I heard she sang a good song, I heard she had a style 
C#m       F#          G#m 
And so I came to see her and listen for a while 
C#m           F#                   B           Eb7    
And there she was this young girl, a stranger to my eyes 
G#m   C#m                   F#                      B    
Strumming my pain with her fingers, singing my life with her words 
G#m                     C#              F#           E    
Killing me softly with her song,  killing me softly with her song 
           B                   E              A               G#    
Telling my whole life with her words, killing me softly with her song

Refrain 
C#m         F#                 B            E              
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd 
C#m              F#          G#m 
I felts He found my letter sand readeach one out loud 
C#m         F#                   B           Eb7    
I prayed thats He would finish but she just kep tright on 
G#m    C#m                  F#                       B     
Strumming my pain with her fingers, singing my life with her words 
G#m                     C#                            F#           E     
Killing me softly with her song,  killing me softly with her song 

Refrain 
C#m         F#             B         E              
She sang as if He knew me in all my dark despair 
C#m           F#                       G#m 
And then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there 
C#m      F#                       B        Eb7    
But she was there the strangers, singing clear and strong 
G#m   C#m                   F#                      B     
Strumming my pain with her fingers, singing my life with her words 
G#m                     C#                            F#           E     
Killing me softly with her song,  killing me softly with her song 

Refrain 
C#m         F#                 B            E              
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd 
C#m              F#          G#m 
I felts He found my letter sand readeach one out loud 
C#m         F#                   B           Eb7   G#m  C#m F# B G#m C# F# E B E    
I prayed thats He would finish but she just kep tright on 
           A               G#    
killing me softly with her song
