The Sound Of Silence Ukulele tab

	  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  
            F#m        D      A 
Left its seeds while I was sleeping 
F#m     D               D2      D     A 
And the vision that was planted in my brain 
        F#m              E        F#m 
Still remains within the sound of silence 



F#m                        E 
In restless dreams I walked alone 
                  F#m 
Narrow streets of cobblestone 
                   D        A 
'Neath the halo of a street lamp 
                F#m       D        A 
I turned my collar to the cold and damp 
        D                          D2      D     A 
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light 
     F#m        A 
That split the night 
F#m             E        F#m 
And touched the sound of silence 



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          D2     D     A 
People writing songs that voices never share 
           F#m  (A - F#m) 
And no one dare 
            E        F#m 
Disturb the sound of silence 



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 to you 
       D          D2     D         A 
But my words like silent raindrops fell 
(F#m - A)          E       F#m 
And echoed in the wells of silence 



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 

And the sign said  
     D                        D2             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
