LAm7 I heard he saREng a good song
SOL I heard he haDOd a style
LAm7 and so I caREme to see him
to liMImsten for a while.
LAm7 And there he waRE7s this young boy
SOL a stranger tSI7o my eyes.



LAm7 I felt all fluREshed with fever
SOL7+ embarrassed bDOy the crowd.
LAm7 I felt he foREund my letters
and reMImad each one out loud.
LAm7 I prayed that hRE7e would finish
SOL7+ but he just keSI7pt right on.



LAm7 He sang as iREf he knew me
SOL7+ in all my dDOark despair.
LAm7 And then he loREoked right through me
as if MImI wasn’t there.
LAm7 And he just kept on singing
SOL7+ singing cleSI7ar and strong.

killing me soREftly with hiDOs song
telling my whoSOLle life with hiDOs words.
Killing me soFA7+ftly        with his soMIng.
