Sound of Silence Simon & Garfunkel Intro: [Em] Hello darkness my old [D]friend I’ve come to talk with you a[Em]gain Because a vision soft[C]ly [G]creeping Left its [Em]seeds while I [C]was slee[G]ping And the [C]vision that was [C/G] planted in my [G]brain Still re[Em]mains Within the [D]sound... of [Em]silence (*stop) In restless dreams I walked a[D]lone Narrow streets of cobbled [Em]stone ‘Neath the halo of [C]a street [G]lamp I turned my [Em]collar to the [C]cold and [G]damp When my [C]eyes were stabbed by the [C/G] flash of a neon [G]light That split the [Em]night [Em] And touched the [D]sound... of [Em]silence (*stop) And in the naked light I [D]saw Ten thousand people maybe [Em]more People talking with[C]out spea[G]king People [Em]hearing with[C]out listen[G]ing People writing [C]songs that [C/G] voices never [G]share And no one [Em]dare [Em] Disturb the [D]sound... of [Em]silence (*stop) “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 [Em]arms that I [C]might reach [G]you But my [C]words like [C/G] silent raindrops [G]fell [extra bar] [G] And e[Em]choed In the [D]wells of [Em]silence (*stop) And the people bowed and [D]prayed To the neon God they [Em]made And the sign flashed [C]its war[G]ning In the [Em]words that it [C]was for[G]ming And the sign said, the [C]words of the prophets are [C/G] written on the subway [G]walls And tenement [Em]halls And [Em]whispered... in the [D]sounds... of [Em]silence.
