I heard he sang a good song..

I heard he had a style..
Dm G
And so I came to see him

and listen for a while..
Dm G7
and there he was this young boy..
C E7
a stranger to my eyes..

killing me softly.. with his song..
Dm G
I felt all flushed with fever..

embarrassed by the crowd..

I prayed that he would finish
C E7
but he just kept right on..
