Simon And Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence

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