Intro

Verse1

I heard he sang a good song

I heard he had a smile

And so I came to see him

To listen for a while

And there he was this young boy

A stranger to my eyes

Chorus

Strumming my pain with his fingers

Singing my life with his words

Killing me softly with his song

Killing me soft-ly with his song

Telling my whole life with his words

Killing me softly with his song

I felt all flushed with fever

Embarassed by the crowd

I felt he found my letters

And read each one out loud

I prayed that he would finish

But he just kept right on

Chorus same as the rest!

Strumming my pain with his fingers

Singing my life with his words

Killing me softly with his song

Killing me softly with his song

Telling my whole life with his words

Killing me softly with his song
