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


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


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


Em Em D D
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Em Em
Silence like a cancer grows
G G C C G G
Hear my words that I might teach you
C C G G
Take my arms that I might reach you"
C C G G
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
Em Em
And echoed
D D Em Em
In the wells of silence


Em Em D D
And the people bowed and prayed
Em Em
To the neon god they made
G G C C G G
And the sign flashed out its warning
C C G G
In the words that it was forming
C C G G
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written
G G Em Em
on the subway walls, And tenement halls"
D D Em Em
And whispered in the sounds of silence
