Verse 1

F#m E Hello darkness, my old friend F#m I've come to talk with you again D A Because a vision softly creeping D A Left its seeds while I was sleeping D A And the vision that was planted in my brain F#m E F#m Still remains within the sound of silence

Verse 2

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

Verse 3

F#m E And in the naked light I saw F#m Ten thousand people, maybe more D A People talking without speaking D A People hearing without listening D A People writing songs that voices never share F#m And no one dare E F#m Disturb the sound of silence

Verse 4

F#m E Fools said I, you do not know F#m Silence like a cancer grows D A Hear my words that I might teach you D A Take my arms that I might reach you D A F#m A But my words like silent raindrops fell E F#m And echoed in the wells of silence

Verse 5

F#m E And the people bowed and prayed F#m To the neon God they made D A And the sign flashed out it's warning D A And the words that it was forming N.C. And the sign said D A The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls F#m And tenement halls E F#m And whispered in the sound of silence
