Verse 1:
Hello darkness my old [D] friend
I’ve come to talk with you a[Em]gain
Because a vision soft[C]ly creep[G]ing
Left its seeds while I [C] was slee[G]ping
And the [C] vision that was planted in my [G] brain
Still re[Em]mains
[G] Within the [D] sound... of [Em] silence [Stop]
Verse 2: (Normal Strumming)
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 collar to the [C] cold and [G] damp
When my [C] eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon [G] light
That split the [Em] night
[G] And touched the [D] sound... of [Em] silence
Verse 3:
And in the naked light I [D] saw
Ten thousand people maybe [Em] more
People talking with[C]out spea[G]king
People hearing with[C]out listen[G]ing
People writing [C] songs that voices never [G] share
And no one [Em] dared
[G] Disturb the [D] sound... of [Em] silence
Verse 4:
“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 arms that I [C] might reach [G] you
But my [C] words like silent raindrops [G] fell [extra bar] [G]
And e[G]choed
In the [D] wells of [Em] silence
Verse 5:
And the people bowed and [D] prayed
To the neon God they [Em] made
And the sign flashed out [C] its war[G]ning
In the words that it [C] was for[G]ming
And the sign said, the [C] words of the prophets are written on the subway [G] walls
And tenement [Em] halls
And [G] whispered... in the [D] sounds... of [Em - gentle strums] silence.
