The Sound Of Silence chords by Touch Of Class
Verse 1
Em
Hello, darkness,
D
my old friend
Em
I’ve come to talk with you again
C
G
Because a vision softly creeping
C
G
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
C
G
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Em
Still remains
G
D
Em
Within the sound of silence
G
A
D
In restless dreams I walked alone
Em
Narrow streets of cobblestone
C
G
‘Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the
C
G
cold and damp
C
When my eyes were stabbed
G
by the flash of a neon light
Em
G
That split the night
D
Em
And touched the sound of si lence
Verse 2
Em
G
Em
D
And in the na ked light I saw
Em
Ten thousand people, maybe more
C
G
People talking without speaking
C
G
People hearing without listening
C
People writing songs that
G
voices never share
Em
G
And no one dare
Em
D
Em
Disturb the sound of silence
D
Fools, said I, you do not know
Em
Silence, like a cancer, grows
C
G
Hear my words that I might teach you
C
G
Take my arms that I might reach you
C
G
But my words like silent raindrops fell
Em
G
D
Em
And echoed in the wells of silence
D
G
Em
D
And the people bowed an d prayed
Em
To the neon God they made
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
are written on the subway walls
Em
G
And tenement halls
Em
D
And whispered in the sound of silence
Em
D
The Sound Of Silence
