The Sound of Silence - Simon & Garfunkel cover - Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren chords
Start Jamming...
Should we do a coffee cheers?
Yeah, we should do coffee cheers.
We're in a cabin, we might as well.
Yeah, coffee cheers!
Cabin coffee cheers.
Oh, hey, I'm the Virgo.
I don't know how you wound up with that.
Yeah, this was just in the cabin, so.
Nice.
Oh, she looks like you, though.
It's focusing on the real Virgo.
Oh, yeah, there she is.
See how it looks like Tony?
Yeah, just like me.
Anyway, happy Sunday morning.
This video is sponsored by our friends at Kaiser Capos.
They were kind enough to send us these beautiful rosewood capos
that we're going to use today on our Simon and Garfunkel tune,
Sound of Silence.
Both of us have been using Kaiser Capos
since we basically learned to play guitar.
So super happy that they're involved now
with our Sunday morning videos.
And if you want to grab your own,
you can use the video description link
to get 10% off.
A fun fact about Kaiser Capos is that I've never actually
broken one, which is amazing for me.
I've only ever lost them, which is no fault of the Capo.
Yeah, we've lost a few in our time on the road.

Hello, darkness, [Eb] my old friend.
I've come to [Fm] talk with you again.
Because a vision [Db] softly [Ab] creeping left its seeds
[Db] while I was [Ab] sleeping.
[Db] And the vision that was planted in [Ab] my brain
still remains [Fm] [Ab] within [Eb] the sound [Fm] of silence.
In restless dreams I [Eb] walked alone,
narrow streets of [Fm] cobblestone.
Meet the halo [Db] of a street [Ab] lamp.
I turned my collar to [Db] the cold [Ab] and damp
when [Db] my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a [Ab] neon light
that split the [Fm] night [Ab] and touched [Eb] the sound [Fm] of silence.
And in the naked [Eb] light I saw 10,000 people, [Fm] maybe more.
People talking [Db] without [Ab] speaking.
People hearing [Db] without [Ab] listening.
People writing [Db]
songs that voices [Ab] never share.
And no one [Fm] dared [Ab] [Eb] disturb the sound [Fm] of silence.
Forms that I [Eb] do not know.
Silence like [Fm] a cancer bone.
Hear my words [Db] that I might [Ab] teach you.
Take my arms that [Db] I [Ab] might reach you.
But [Db] my words, like silent [Ab] ray drafts,
fell [Db] and [Fm] [Ab]
echoed in [Eb] the wells [Fm] of silence.
And the people [Eb] bowed in praise to the neon god [Fm] they made.
And the sun [Db] flashed at its [Ab]
morning
in the words that [Db] it [Ab] was for me.
And the silence [Db] said the words of a prophet
saw written on the [Ab] subway walls [Fm] in tenement halls
[Ab] and whispered [Eb] in the sound [Fm] of silence.
Those birds do not understand the sounds of silence.
They don't want the [N] silence.
I'm glad they don't.
