Hello darkness my old friend . . . I've come to talk with you again . . .
(C G) G (C G)
Because a vision softly creeping . . . Lets its seeds while i was sleeping . . .
C C G (Em G)
And the vision . . . that planted in my brain . . . still remains . . .
D Em
Within the sound of silence
Em D Em
In restless dreams i walked alone . . . Narrow streets of cobblestone
(C G) (C G)
'Neath the halo of a street lamp . . . I turned my collar to the cold and damp
C C G (Em G)
When my eyes were stabbed . . . by the flash of a neon light . . . that split the night
D Em
And touched the sound of silence
D Em
And in the naked light I saw . . . Ten thousand people, maybe more
(C G) (C G)
People talking without speaking . . . People hearing without listening
C G (Em G)
People writing songs that voices never share . . . no one dared
D Em
Disturb the sound of silence
D Em
"Fools", said I, "You do not know . . . silence's like a cancer growth
(C G) (C G)
Hear my words that I might teach you . . . take my arms that I might reach you"
C G
But my words, like silent raindrops fell . . .
(Em G) D Em
And echoed in the wells of silence
