[D#] [G#] Hello darkness [C#] my old friend, I've come to talk with [D#m] you again
Because a vision [B] softly [F#] creeping
Left its seeds while [B] I was [F#] sleeping
[B] And the vision that was planted in [F#] my brain
still [D#m] remains
within [A#m] the [C#] sound
[D#m] of silence
In restless dreams I [C#] walked alone
Narrow streets of [D#m] cobblestone
Leave [F#] the halo [B] of a [F#] street lamp
I turned my collar to [B] the cold [F#] and damp
When [B] my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a [F#] neon light
Split the night
[D#m] [F#] and [C#] touched the sound [D#m] Of silence
And in the naked [C#] light I saw
10,000 people maybe [D#m] more
People talking [B] without [F#] speaking
People hearing [B] without [F#] listening
People writing [B] songs
That voices never [F#] share
No one did [D#m] [F#] disturb [C#] the sound [D#m] of silence
Who said I do [C#] not know
Silence like a [D#m] cancer grows
Hear my words that I [B] might [F#] teach you
Take my arms that I [B] [F#] might reach you
But [B] my words
like silent angels
[F#] I'll stop [B] and [F#] [D#m]
[F#] echo
the [C#] will [D#m] of silence
And the people [C#] found a phrase
To end the [D#m] ongoing pain
And the sign [B] flashed out its [F#] warning
And the word [B] that it was [F#] forming
And the sign said [B] the words of the prophets are written on the subway [F#] wall
Tenor and [D#m] hoes
[F#] Whispered
[C#] [G#] of silence
[D#]
Because a vision [B] softly [F#] creeping
Left its seeds while [B] I was [F#] sleeping
[B] And the vision that was planted in [F#] my brain
still [D#m] remains
within [A#m] the [C#] sound
[D#m] of silence
In restless dreams I [C#] walked alone
Narrow streets of [D#m] cobblestone

People hearing [B] without [F#] listening

Who said I do [C#] not know
Silence like a [D#m] cancer grows
Hear my words that I [B] might [F#] teach you
Take my arms that I [B] [F#] might reach you
But [B] my words
like silent angels
[F#] I'll stop [B] and [F#] [D#m]
[F#] echo
the [C#] will [D#m] of silence
