Intro: A5(9) 


A5(9)                        G 
   Hello, darkness, my old friend 
                             Am 
I've come to talk with you again 
           C          F      C   C/G 
Because a vision softly creeping 
                         
Left its seeds while  
   F       C   C/G 
I was sleeping 
         F  
And the vision that was planted in my  
  C    
Brain 
              Am 
Still remains 
C             G        A5(9)  Am 
  Within the sound of silence 
  

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


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


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


                           G 
And the people bowed and prayed 
                      Am 
To the neon god they made 
         C               F       C 
And the sign flashed out its warning 
                      F      C 
In the words that it was forming 

And the sign said 
     F 
The words of the prophets are written  
               C 
On the subway walls 
                   Am   
And tenement halls 
      C               G        A5(9)   
And whispered in the sound of silence
