Chorus:



EmÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Am

StrummingÂ myÂ painÂ withÂ hisÂ fingers

D7Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â G

singingÂ myÂ lifeÂ withÂ hisÂ words

EmÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â A

killingÂ meÂ softlyÂ withÂ hisÂ song

Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â DÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â C

killingÂ meÂ softlyÂ withÂ hisÂ song

Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â GÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â C

tellingÂ myÂ wholeÂ lifeÂ withÂ hisÂ words.

Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Esus4

KillingÂ meÂ softly

Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â E

withÂ hisÂ song.







Am7Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â D

IÂ heardÂ heÂ sangÂ aÂ goodÂ song

GÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â C

IÂ heardÂ heÂ hadÂ aÂ style

Am7Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â D

andÂ soÂ IÂ cameÂ toÂ seeÂ himÂ 

Â Â Â Â Em

andÂ listenÂ forÂ aÂ while.

Am7Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â D7

AndÂ thereÂ heÂ wasÂ thisÂ youngÂ boy

GÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â b7

aÂ strangerÂ toÂ myÂ eyes.





(Chorus)





IÂ feltÂ allÂ flushedÂ withÂ fever

embarrassedÂ byÂ theÂ crowd.

IÂ feltÂ heÂ foundÂ myÂ lettersÂ 

andÂ readÂ eachÂ oneÂ outÂ loud.

IÂ prayedÂ thatÂ heÂ wouldÂ finish

butÂ heÂ justÂ keptÂ rightÂ on.



(Chorus)



HeÂ sangÂ asÂ ifÂ heÂ knewÂ me

inÂ allÂ myÂ darkÂ despair.

AndÂ thenÂ heÂ lookedÂ rightÂ throughÂ me

asÂ ifÂ IÂ wasn'tÂ there.

AndÂ heÂ justÂ keptÂ onÂ singing

singingÂ clearÂ andÂ strong.



(Chorus)
