[N] [G#] [D#m]
Hello darkness [C#] my old friend
I've come to talk with you [D#m] again
[F#] Because a vision [B] softly [F#] creeping
Left its seeds while I [B] was [F#] sleeping
[B] And the vision that was planted in my [F#] brain
[A#m] Still [D#] remains
[F#] Within the [C#] sound [D#m] of silence
In restless dreams I walked
[C#]
Narrow streets of [D#m] cobblestone
Neath the halo of [B] a street [F#] lamp
I turned my collar to [B] the cold [F#] and damp
[B] When my eyes were stabbed
By the flash of a neon [F#] light
That split [D#m] the night
[F#] And [C#] touched the sound of [D#m] silence
And in the naked [C#] light I saw
Ten thousand people, [D#m] maybe more
People [F#] talking [B] without [F#] speaking
People hearing [B] without [F#] listening
People writing [B] songs
That voices never [F#] share
And no one dared
[A#m] Disturb [C#] the sound [D#m] of silence
Fools that I do [C#] not know
Silence like a [D#m] cancer grows
Hear my words that [B] I might [F#] teach you
Take my arms that I [B] might reach [F#] you
But [B] my words like silent [F#] raindrops fell
[D#m] All [F#] in echoes [C#] of [D#] silence
And the people [C#] bowed and prayed
To the neon god [D#m] they made
And the sign flashed its [F#] warning
In the words that it [B] was [F#] forming
And the sign said [B] the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
[D#m] And [F#] tenement halls
[D#m] [F#] [C#]
[D#m] Of silence
[D#] [A#m]
