The Sounds Of Silence Tab por Simon And Garfunkel

Em                    D
Hello darkness, my old friend,
                            Em
I've come to talk with you again,
            G       C       G
Because a vision softly creeping,
                      C       G
Left it seeds while I was sleeping,
          C                            G
And the vision that was planted in my brain
         Em
Still remains
             D         Em
Within the sound of silence.


Em                            D 
In restless dreams I walked alone
                          Em
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
            G       C     G     
Neath the halo of street lamp,
                           C        G                                                            
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
          C                              G
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
                Em
That split the night
                  D         Em
And touched the sound of silence.


Em                       D 
And in the naked light I saw
                           Em
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
           G       C       G
People talking without speaking,
                   C        G
People hearing without listening,
          C                             G
People writing songs that voices never share
            Em
And no one dare
             D         Em
Disturb the sound of silence.




  Em                        D 
"Fools" said I, "You don't know
                        Em
Silence like a cancer grows.
            G         C          G
Hear my words that I might teach you,
                      C          G
Thake my arms that I might reach you."
          C                         G
But my words like silence raindrops fell,
       Em
And echoed
        D         Em
In the wells of silence.


Em                         D 
And the people bowed and prayed
                      Em
To the neon god they made.
         G               C       G
And the sign flashed out its warning,
                      C       G
In the words that it was forming.
          C                            
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
                            G                  Em
Are written on the subway walls, and tenements halls."
                      D         Em
And whisper'd in the sound of silence.
