THE SOUNDS OF SILENCE ACORDES
[Start] [Intro] Bbsus4 Eb Ebm N.C. ■ ■ ■ Hello darkness my old friend N.C. I've come to talk with you again [Verse] Ebm B Ebm Gb Because a vision softly creeping ■ B Gb Left its seeds while I was sleeping ■ B Gb Ebm And the vision that was planted in my brain still remains Db Ebm Within the sound of silence Ebm Db In restless dreams I walked alone Ebm Narrow streets of cobblestone B Gb 'neath the halo of a street lamp B Gb I turned my collar to the cold and damp B Gb Ebm When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light that split the night ■ Gb Db Ebm ■ And touched the sound of silence Db And in the naked light I saw Eb Ebm Ten thousand people maybe more ■ B Gb People talking without speaking ■ Ebm Gb People hearing without listening B Gb Ebm People writing songs that voices never shared and no one dared ■ [Chorus] Gb Db Ebm ■ Disturb the sound of silence Db Fools said I You do not know Eb Silence like a cancer grows Ebm B Gb Hear my words that I might teach you B Ebm Gb Take my arms that I might reach you ■ B Ebm But my words like silent raindrops fell [Verse] Gb Fm Dbmaj7 Ebm And echoed in the wells of silence Db And the people bowed and prayed Eb Ebm To the neon god they made ■ [Chorus] B Gb And the sign flashed out its warning B Gb In the words that it was forming B Gb Ebm And the sign said The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls [Outro] Bbm Db Dbmaj7 Db Bbm7 Bbm Bbsus4 Eb And whispered in the sound ■ ■ of silence ■ [End]
