Song of silence





Am                       G
Hello darkness, my old friend,
                           Am
I've come to talk with you again,
                  F     C          
Because a vision softly creeping,
         Am             F     C                  
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
         F                               C    
And the vision that was planted in my brain
       Am       
Still remains
             G       Am               
Within the sound of silence.


[Verse 2]

 Am                          G         
In restless dreams I walked alone
                        Am
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
 Am                 F        C
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
              Am           F        C
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
        F                                         C     
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
               Am
That split the night
                G        Am
And touched the sound of silence.


[Verse 3]

Am                         G
And in the naked light I saw
                           Am
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
Am                F       C
People talking without speaking,
Am                    F       C
People hearing without listening,
                 F                       C
People writing songs that voices never share
           Am
And no one dare
             G        Am
Disturb the sound of silence.


[Verse 4]

Am                         G
Fools said I, you do not know
                      Am
Silence like a cancer grows.
Am                     F          C
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Am                    F           C
Take my arms that I might reach you.
         F                          C
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
      Am
And echoed
       G        Am
In the wells of silence


[Verse 5]

Am                        G
And the people bowed and prayed
                     Am
To the neon God they made.
Am                         F      C
 And the sign flashed out its warning,
Am                     F     C
In the words that it was forming.
         Am              F
And the sign said, the words of the prophets
        F                    C
Are written on the subway walls
               Am
And tenement halls.
                      G         Am      
And whispered in the sounds of silence.
