Killing me sof

 
tly
             
with his song.

[Verse]
          
I heard he san

g a good song
          
I heard he had

 a style
        
and so I came 

to see him
    
and listen for

 a while.
           
And there he w

 
as this young 

boy
          
a stranger to 

my eyes.

[Chorus]
            
Strumming my p

              
ain with his f

  
ingers
            
singing my lif

              
e with his wor

 
ds
            
killing me sof

          
tly with his s

ong
              
killing me sof

            
tly with his s

ong
             
telling my who

              
le life with h

   
is words.
              
Killing me sof

 
tly
             
with his song.

[Verse]
          
I felt all flu

shed with feve

r
          
embarrassed by

 the crowd.
        
I felt he foun

d my letters
    
and read each 

one out loud.
           
I prayed that 

 
he would finis

h
          
but he just ke

pt right on.

[Chorus]
            
Strumming my p

              
ain with his f

  
ingers
            
singing my lif

ds
            
killing me sof

          
tly with his s

ong
              
killing me sof

            
tly with his s

ong
             
telling my who

Killing me sof

 
tly
             
with his song.

[Verse]
          
He sang as if 

he knew me
          
in all my dark

 despair.
        
And then he lo

oked right thr

ough me
    
as if I wasn't

 there.
           
And he just ke

 
pt on singing
          
singing clear 

and strong.

[Chorus]
            
Strumming my p

              
ain with his f

  
ingers
            
singing my lif
