[D#] _ _ [A#m] _ _ _ [D#] _ [F] 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 sleeping.
[F#] _ _
[B] And the vision _ that was planted in my [F#] brain, still _ [D#m] remains _ [A#m] within the [C#] sound _
[D#m] of [A#] silence.
_ _ [D#m] It lets the strings I [C#] want to hold me. _ _
Parasites of [D#m] common stone, _ _ _ in the hill [B] of a bay [F#] street lamp, _
I turned my collar to [B] a cold [F#] and damp. _
[B] When my eyes were spared by the flash of a neon [F#] light,
the spell that _
[D#m] night, [F#] _ [C#] just to _ _ _ [D#m] seize.
_ _ _ And it would make you [C#] out as _ strong, ten thousand people maybe [D#m] more. _ _ _
People talking [B] without [F#] speaking, _ _ people hearing [B] without [F#] listening, _
people writing [B] _ songs, _ voices no more [F#] to share.
[B] No [F#] one [D#m] there, _ [F#] to [C#] hear the sound, _ [D#m] to see the light. _ _
You said [D] I need [C#] to know, _ _ silence like a [D#m] gun soon blow. _ _ _
Hear my [F#] words [B] that I might [F#] be true, _ take my arms [B] that I might be [F#] true.
But [B] my words, _ _ _ rain [F#] drops down, _ _ _ _ [D#m] _
_ [F#] the voice, _ [C#] the _ voice.
[D#m] _ _ _ _ And where people [C#] got me, _ _ _ _ [D#m] they made _ _ me.
And the silence [B] that is [F#] warning, _ _ hear my words [B] that it was [F#] for me.
And the silence has [B] the words of a _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ broken heart.
[D#m] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ _ Of [D#m] a silent heart.
_ _ _ [G] _ _ [D#m] _ _
