THE SOUND OF SILENCE CHORDS

[Start]

[Verse]
N.C.                        
Hello darkness my old friend
N.C.                            
I've come to talk with you again
N.C.                            
Because a vision softly creeping
N.C.                               
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
        D                                   Gbm          
And the vision that was planted in my brain still remains
           Gbm             
Within the sound of silence
                            E    
In restless dreams I walked alone
                  Gbm        
Narrow streets of cobblestone
                   D             
'neath the halo of the streetlamp
A                           D            
 I turned my collar to the cold and damp
                  D      
When my eyes were stabbed
                  D         
By the flash of a neon light
A                   
That split the night
E                      
 And touched the sound
   E      
Of silence


[Chorus]
                       E    
And in the naked light I saw
                               Gb7
Ten thousand people maybe more   
                       A7      
People talking without speaking
               A7               
People hearing without listening
       A7           
People writing songs
            A7         
That voices never share
           A    
And no one dared
E                
Disturb the sound
   Gbm     D Dmaj7
Of silence      
D     G                     
Fools said I you do not know
               B           
Silence like a cancer grows
                     G           D7 
Hear my words that I might teach you
                    G7    G     G7 
Take my arms that I might reach you
                  G7                   
But my words like silent raindrops fell
G7                     
And echoed in the wells
   G7     
Of silence
    G7                         
And the people bowed and prayed
A7 A        B            
To the neon god they made
        Gbm              G          
And the sign flashed out its warning
             G       G7  G       D
In the words that it was forming 
                      G7                   
And the sign said the words of the prophets
                          G     Db7
Are written on the subway walls   
             Db7  
And tenement halls


[End]

Of silence
