The Sound Of Silence chords by
Ed Ames
Ed Ames

N/A
Verse 1
Am
G

Hello, darkness, my old friend
Am

I've come to talk to you again
F

Because a vision softly creeping
C
F
C

Left its seeds while I was sleeping
F

And the vision that
C

was planted in my brain
Am
C
G
Am

Still remains within the sound of silence.
C
G

In restless dreams I walk alone,
Am

narrow streets of cobbled stone.
C
F
C

Neath the halo of a street lamp,
F
C

I turned my color to the golden dam.
F

When my eyes were stabbed
C

by the flash of a neon light,

That split the night and touched
G
Am

the sound of silence

And in the naked night
G

I saw ten thousand people,
Am

maybe more
C
F

People talking without speaking,
C
F

people hearing without listening
C
F

People writing songs
C

that voices never share
F
C

And no one dare disturb
G
Am

the sound of silence
G

Fool said I, you do not know
Am

Silence like a cancer grows
C
F
C

Hear my words that I might teach you
F
C

Take my arms that I might reach you
F
C

But my words, like silent raindrops, fell
Am
C
G
Am

And echoed in the well of silence,
Bbm
Ab

And the people bowed and prayed
Bbm

To the neon god they made.
Db
Gb
Db

And the sign flashed out its warning
Gb

In the words that it was forming,
Db
Gb

And the sign said the words of the Prophet are written
Db

on the subway walls and tenement halls
Ab

And whispered in the sound
Ab
Bbm

s of silence

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
