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