D* Emadd9
Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again
C G C G
Because a vision softly creeping left its seeds while I was sleeping
C G Em*
And the vision that was planted in my brain ------------
Em D Em* --0-0-0-0---
Still remains within the sound of silence ---2-0------
-2-----4-2--
D Em ------------
In restless dreams I walked alone narrow streets of cobblestone ------------
C G C G
'Neath the halo of a street lamp I turned my collar to the cold and damp
C G
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
Em G D Em*
That split the night and touched the sound of silence
D Em
And in the naked light I saw ten thousand people, maybe more
C G C G
People talking without speaking; people hearing without listening
C G
People writing songs that voices never share
Em D/F# G D/F# Em D Em*
And no one dared disturb the sound of silence
D Em
Fools said I, you do not know, silence like a cancer grows
C G C G
Hear my words that I might teach you; take my arms that I might reach you
C G Em
But my words like silent raindrops fell
D/F# G D Em*
And echoed in the wells of silence
Em D G D Em
And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made
C G C G
And the sign flashed out it's warning and the words that it was forming
C G
And the sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
Em D/F# G
And tenement halls
D/F# Em D Em* Em* Em* D Em
And whispered in the sound of silence
