and listen for a while

a stranger to my eyes .

Fm A#m
strumming my pain with his fingers
D# G#
singing my life with his words
Fm A#
killing me softly with his song

killing me softly , with his song

A#m D#
i felt all flushed with fever

embarrassed by the crowd .
A#m D#
i felt he found my letters
Fm
and read each one out loud .
A#m D#
i prayed that he would finish
G# C
but he just kept right on .
