Intro 

Em                    D 
Hello darkness my old friend 
                            Em 
I've come to talk with you again 
            G       C       G 
Because a vision softly creeping 
                      C       G 
Left it seeds while I was sleeping 
          C                            G 
And the vision that was planted in my brain 
         Em 
Still remains 
             D         Em 
Within the sound of silence 

Em                            D  
In restless dreams I walked alone 
                          Em 
Narrow streets of cobblestone 
            G       C     G      
Neath the halo of street lamp 
                           C        G                                                             
I turned my collar to the cold and damp 
          C                              G 
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light 
                Em 
That split the night 
                  D         Em 
And touched the sound of silence 

Em                       D  
And in the naked light I saw 
                           Em 
Ten thousand people maybe more 
           G       C       G 
People talking without speaking 
                   C        G 
People hearing without listening 
          C                             G 
People writing songs that voices never share 
            Em 
And no one dare 
             D         Em 
Disturb the sound of silence 

  Em                        D  
Fools said I You don't know 
                        Em 
Silence like a cancer grows 
            G         C          G 
Hear my words that I might teach you 
                      C          G 
Thake my arms that I might reach you 
          C                         G 
But my words like silence raindrops fell 
       Em 
And echoed 
        D         Em 
In the wells of silence 

Em                         D  
And the people bowed and prayed 
                      Em 
To the neon god they made 
         G               C       G 
And the sign flashed out its warning 
                      C       G 
In the words that it was forming 
          C                             
And the sign said The words of the prophets 
                            G                  Em 
Are written on the subway walls and tenements halls 
                      D         Em 
And whisper'd in the sound of silence
