Simon And Garfunkel - Sound Of Silenceadd

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