Killing Me Softly Chords

(ver. 1)
Frank Sinatra
[Intro]
Em                         Am
Strumming my pain with her fingers
D7                       Gmaj7
singing my life with her words
Em                     A7
killing me softly with her song
           D           C
killing me softly with her song
           G               C6
telling my whole life with her words.
           Fmaj7b5
Killing me softly
         E
with her song.

[Verse]
Am7         D7
I heard she sang a good song
Gmaj7       C
I heard she had a style
Am7      D
and so I came to see her
    Em
and listen for a while.
Am7          D7
And there she was this young girl
G          B7
a stranger to my eyes.

[Chorus]
Em                         Am
Strumming my pain with her fingers
D7                       Gmaj7
singing my life with her words
Em                     A7
killing me softly with her song
           D           C
killing me softly with her song
           G               C6
telling my whole life with her words.
           Fmaj7b5
Killing me softly
         E
with her song.

[Verse]
Am7        D7
I felt all flushed with fever
Gmaj7       C  
embarrassed by the crowd.
Am7        D
I felt she found my letters
    Em
and read each one out loud.
Am7           D7
I prayed that she would finish
G            B7     
but she just kept right on.

[Chorus]
Em                         Am
Strumming my pain with her fingers
D7                       Gmaj7
singing my life with her words
Em                     A7
killing me softly with her song
           D           C
killing me softly with her song
           G               C6
telling my whole life with her words.
           Fmaj7b5
Killing me softly
         E
with her song.

[Verse]
Am7         D7
She sang as if she knew me
Gmaj7     C  
in all my dark despair.
Am7          D
And then she looked right through me
   Em
as if I wasn't there.
Am7          D7
And she just kept on singing
G       B7
Singing clear and strong.

[Chorus]
Em                         Am
Strumming my pain with her fingers
D7                       Gmaj7
singing my life with her words
Em                     A7
killing me softly with her song
           D           C
killing me softly with her song
           G               C6
telling my whole life with her words.
           Fmaj7b5
Killing me softly
         E
with her song.
