Sound Of Silence Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Dm Hello darkness, my old Cfriend

 I've come to talk with you aDmgain

 Because a vision softlA♯y creepFing

 Left its seeds while I wA♯as sleepFing

 And the A♯vision that was planted in my Fbrain

 Still remains Dm - F

 Within the Csound of Dmsilence

Verse 2

Verse 3

 And in the naked light I Csaw

 Ten thousand people, maybe Dmmore

 People talking withA♯out speakFing

 People hearing withA♯out listenFing

 People writing A♯songs that voices never Fshare

 And no one dared Dm - F

 Disturb the Csound of Dmsilence

Verse 4

 "Fools", said I, "You do not Cknow

 Silence like a cancer Dmgrows

 Hear my words that I mA♯ight teach Fyou

 Take my arms that I mA♯ight reach Fyou"

 But my A♯words, like silent raindrops Ffell Dm

And echoed

 In the Cwells of Dmsilence

Verse 5

 And the people bowed and Cprayed

 To the neon god they Dmmade

 And the sign flashed out A♯its warnFing

 In the words that it wA♯as forFming

 And the sign said, "The A♯words of the prophets are written on the subway Fwalls

 And tenement halls" Dm

 And Fwhispered in the Csounds of Dmsilence.
