Killing Me Softly


Hey! I found this Tab on the site but some bits sounded a bit off to me, so I just did a few adjustments. These are the chords I use to play the song. Just made it easier for beginners and hopefully better! Enjoy=) *Chorus*(this song begins with the chorus) Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers, D G Singing my life with his words. Em A Killing me softly with his song, D C Killing me softly with his song; G C telling my whole life, with his words, Fmaj7 E Killing me softly -- with his song. Verse 1 Am7 D I heard he sang a good song, G C I heard he had a style, Am7 D Em Em7 And so I went to see him and listen for awhile. Am7 D And there he was this young boy G B7 A stranger to my eyes. *Chorus* Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers, D G Singing my life with his words. Em A Killing me softly with his song, D C Killing me softly with his song; G C telling my whole life, with his words, Fmaj7 E Killing me softly -- with his song. Verse 2 Am7 D I felt all flushed with fever, G C Embarassed by the crowd. Am7 D I felt he found my letters, Em Em7 And read each one out loud. Am7 D I prayed that he would finish, G B7 But he just kept right on. *Chorus* Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers, D G Singing my life with his words. Em A Killing me softly with his song, D C Killing me softly with his song; G C telling my whole life, with his words, Fmaj7 E Killing me softly -- with his song. Verse 3 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 Em7 As if I wasn't there. Am7 D He just kept right on, G B7 Singin' clear and strong. *Chorus* repeat Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers, D G Singing my life with his words. Em A Killing me softly with his song, D C Killing me softly with his song; G C telling my whole life, with his words, Fmaj7 E Killing me softly -- with his song. Em Am D G Oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Em A La la la la la la, D C G C F E Woh la, woh la, la la la la. *Chorus* Em Am Strumming my pain with his fingers, D G Singing my life with his words. Em A Killing me softly with his song, D C Killing me softly with his song; G C telling my whole life, with his words, Fmaj7 E Killing me softly -- with his song.
