[Am] Hello darkness my old [G]friend I've come to talk with you [Am]again
[C] Because a vision softly[F] creeping[C] Left its seeds while I [F]was sleeping[C]
And the [F]vision that was planted in my brain[C] Still re[Am]mains
[C] Within the [G]sound of [Am]silence

[Am] In restless dreams I walked a[G]lone Narrow streets of cobbles[Am]tone
[C] Neath the halo of the[F] street [C]lamp I turned my collar to the [F]cold and [C]damp
When my [F]eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon li[C]ght That split the [Am]night
And touched the [G]sound of [Am]silence

[Am] And in the naked light [G]I saw Ten thousand people maybe [Am]more
[C] People talking with[F]out spea[C]king People hearing with[F]out liste[C]ning
People writing [F]songs that voices never [C]share And no one [Am]dare
[C] disturb the [G]sound of [Am]silence

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

[Am] And the people bowed and [G]prayed to the neon god they [Am]made.
[C] And the sign flashed out [F]its war[C]ning And the words that it [F]was for[C]ming
And the sign said [F]The words of the prophets are written on the subway [C]walls
And tenement [Am]halls And [C]whispered in the [G]sound of [Am]silence.
