The Sound Of Silence Chords by Paul Simon

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