[Em]
[Em]Hello darkness, my old [D]friend, Ive come to talk with you [Em]again, Because a visions soft[C]ly cree[G]ping, Left its seeds while I [C]was slee[G]ping, And the [C]vision that was planted in to my [G]brain, still re[Em]mains [G]Within the [D]sound of [Em]silence
In restless dreams I walked [D]alone Narrow streets of cobble[Em]stone, Neath the halo of a [C]street [G]lamp, I turned my collar to the [C]cold and [G]damp When my [C]eyes were stabbed by the flash by a neon [G]light That split the [Em]night [G]And touched the [D]sound of [Em]silence
And in the naked light I [D]saw Ten thousand people, maybe [Em]more People talking with[C]out spea[G]king, People hearing with[C]out liste[G]ning, People writing [C]songs that voices never [G]share And no one [Em]dare [G]Disturb the [D]sound of [Em]silence
Fools said I, "You do not [D]know" Silence like a cancer [Em]grows Hear my words that I [C]might teach [G]you, Take my arms that I [C]might reach [G]you But my [C]words like [G]silent raindrops [Em]fell, And [G]echoed In the [D]walls of [Em]silence
And the people bowed and [D]prayed To the neon god theyd [Em]made And the sign flashed out [C]is war[G]ning, In the words that it [C]was for[G]ming And the [C]sign said the words of the prophets Are written on the subway [G]walls And tenement [Em]halls And [G]whisperd in the [D]sound of [Em]silence.
