[Em] remains [G] within the [D] sound of [Em] silence.
In restless dreams [D] I walked alone,
narrow streets of [Em] the stone.
[G] Neath the halo [C] of a [G] street lamp,
I turned my car to [D] the cold [G] and damp.
[C] When my eyes were stared by the flash of an neon [G] light
that split the night and touched [D] the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw 10,000 people, maybe more.
People [G] talking [C] without [G] speaking, people hearing without [G] listening,
people writing [C] songs that voices [D] never [G] shared.
No one [Em] dared [G] [D] disturb the sound [Em] of silence.
Fools that I [D] could not know, silence like a [Em] cancer grows.
[G] Hear my words [C] and I might [G] teach you,
take my arms [C] and I might reach [G] out to you.
[C] Run my wounds like [D] silent [G] raindrops fell.
[Em]
[G] Echo [D] in [B] the wells of silence [E] and people bow
[D] to the neon [Em] god they made.
And the sign [C] flashed its [G] warning in the words that it [C] was [G] forming.
And the sign [C] said the words of the prophets are written on the [G] subway walls
and tampered [Em] paws whispered in [D] the sound of [B] silence.
