Killing Me Softly chords by Lauryn Hill

Killing me softly

             Lauryn Hill

Chorus:

Em              Am7
Strumming my pain with his fingers
D7              G
singing my life with his words
Em           Am7
killing me softly with his song
        D      C
killing me softly with his song
      G          C
telling my whole life with his words.
        Fmaj7
Killing me softly
       E
with his song.

Verse:

Am7     D
I heard he sang a good song
G     C
I heard he had a style
Am7    D
and so I came to see him
  Em
and listen for a while.
Am7      D7
And there he was this young boy
G     B7
a stranger to my eyes.


(Chorus)


Verse:

Am7     D
I felt all flushed with fever
G     C
embarrassed by the crowd.
Am7    D
I felt he found my letters
  Em
and read each one out loud.
Am7      D7
I prayed that he would finish
G     B7
but he just kept right on.


(Chorus)


Verse:

Am7     D
He sang as if he knew me
G     C
in all my dark despair.
Am7    D
And then he looked right through me
  Em
as if I wasn't there.
Am7      D7
And he just kept on singing
G     B7
singing clear and strong.

(Chorus)

enjoy!
