(Chorus)


Strummin 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 killin me softly with his song





(Verse 1)

I heard he sang a good song


I heard he had a style


And so i came to see him and listen for a while

And there he was this young boy


a stranger to my eyes




(Chorus)


Strummin my pain with his fingers


Singin my life with his words

Killing me softly with his song


Killing me softly with his song telling my whole life


with his words killin me softly with his song




(Verse 2)


I felt all flushed with fever

embrarrassed 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)


Strummin my pain with his fingers (1 time 1 time)


Singin my life with his words (2 times 2 times)

killing me softly with his song


Killing softly with his song telling my whole life


with his words killin me softly with his song




(Hook)


I said whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh la la la whoa oh oh oh oh oh ohla la la,la la la la la la la la whoa oh oh oh la la la la la la la la la la la la la la



(Chorus)


Strummin my pain with his fingers (yeeeees he was)

Singin my life with his words


Killing me softly with his song

Killing me softly with his "SONG" telling my whole life

with his words killin me softly with his song
