D#m C# Hello darkness my old friend D#m I ve come to talk to you again B F# because a vision softly is creeping D#m B F# left its seeds while I was sleeping B F# D#m and the vision that was planted in my brain still remains C# D#m within the sound of silence D#m C# In restless dreams I walked alone D#m narrow streets of cobble-stone B F# Neath the halo of a street lamp D#m B F# I turned my collar to the cold and damp B F# when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light D#m C# D#m that split the night and touched the sound of silence
D#m C# And in the naked light I saw D#m ten thousand people maybe more B F# people talking without speaking D#m B F# people hearing without listening B F# people writing songs that voices never share D#m C# D#m and no-one dare disturb the sound of silence D#m C# Fools said I you do not know D#m silence like a cancer grows B F# hear my words that I might teach you D#m B F# take my arms that I might reach you B F# D#m But my words like silent raindrops fell C# D#m and echoed in the wells of silence D#m C# And the people bowed and prayed D#m to the neon god they d made B F# And the sign flashed out its warning D#m B F# in the words that it was forming B And the sign said the words of the prophets are written F# D#m in the subway walls and tenement halls C# D#m and whispered in the sound - of silence
