A minorAm


🎸 Verse 1:
A minorAm           G+G                  A minorAm
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
           FF   C majorC              FF    C majorC
Because a vision softly creepin' left it's seeds while I was sleepin'
    FF               C majorC       A minorAm
And the vision that was planted in my brain, still remains
 C majorC    G+G     A minorAm
Within the sounds of silence

🎸 Verse 2:
               G+G               A minorAm
In restless dreams I walked alone, narrow streets of cobblestone
          FF     C majorC                FF    C majorC
'Neath the halo of a-a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
    FF                    C majorC           A minorAm
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light, that split the night
  C majorC      G+G    A minorAm
And touched the sound of silence

🎸 Verse 3:
             G+G                A minorAm
And in the naked light I saw; ten thousand people, maybe more
          FF    C majorC            FF    C majorC
People talking without speaking, people hearing without listening
        FF            C majorC       A minorAm
People writing songs that voices never share, no one dares
  C majorC    G+G     A minorAm
Disturb the sounds of silence

🎸 Verse 4:
          G+G              A minorAm
Fools said I do not know; silence like a cancer grows
           FF      C majorC            FF      C majorC
Hear my words that I might teach you, take my arms and I might reach you
    FF              C majorC   A minorAm
But my words like silent raindrops fell
  C majorC       G+G    A minorAm
And echoed, in the wells of silence

🎸 Verse 5:
             G+G               A minorAm
And the people bowed and prayed, to that neon God they made
             FF   C majorC             FF   C majorC
And the sign flashed out its warning, in the words that it was forming.
            FF                         C majorC         A minorAm
And the sign said; the words of the prophets, are written on that subway walls and tenement halls
  C majorC        G+G       A minorAm
And whisper'd in the sounds  of silence
