The Sound of Silence | Disturbed | Lyrics ☾☀ Chords

[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Hello Tess, my [E] old friend.
_ [Bm] [E] I've come to talk with [F#m] you again.
_ Because a vision [D] softly [A] creeping _ _
Left its scenes while [D] I was [A] sleeping. _
And [D] the vision _ that was planted in [A] my brain
[F#m] Still remains _ [A] in [E] the sound [F#m] of silence.
_ _ In restless dreams I [A] walked [E] alone
_ In narrow streets of [F#m] _ cobblestone.
_ _ Neath the halo [D] of a _ [A] streamlamp
I turned my color to [D] the [A] cold and damp.
When [D] my eyes were stared by the flash of a neon [A] light
[Bm] That [F#m] split the [A] night _ and touched [E] the sound _ [F#] of [F#m] silence.
_ _ [F#] [E] And [A] in the [F#] naked [E] light I saw
_ Ten thousand people, maybe [F#m] _ more.
_ People talking [D] without [A] speaking
People _ hearing [D] without [A] listening
People writing [D] _
songs
And voices never [A] shared
And [F#m] no one dared
To [A] stand [E] aside Of [F#] [F#m] silence. _
_ Wolf in I, you do [E] not know _
_ _ Silence like a [F#m] cancer _ _ grows.
Hear my words that [D] I'm a high [A] teacher
Hear my _ _ words that [D] I'm a [A] preacher
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ Like silent _ [A] raindrops fell
_ _ [F#m] _
[A] In the [E] golden wells [F#m] of _ silence.
_ [A] And the [F#m] people bowed [E] in praise
_ To the neon [F#m] god they met
_ _ And the sign flashed out [D] in [A] his spawning
_ _ Hear the words that it [D] was [A] forming
_ In the silence and [D] the words on the profits
Are written on the subway [A] walls
And [F#m] tenement [A] halls
[F#m] You _ _ whispered in [E] the sound _
_ _ _ _ _ Of [A]
[B] silence.
