Guitar chords with lyrics
The Sound of Silence by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel
Tuning: EADGBE
E minorEm 
D MajorD
Hello darkness, my old friend,
E minorEm
I've come to talk with you again,
C majorC 
G+G
Because a vision soft creeping,
E minorEm C majorC G+G
Left it's seeds while I was sleeping,
C majorC 
C/GC/G G+G
And the vision that was planted in my brain
E minorEm
Still remains
D MajorD E minorEm
Within the sound of silence.
E minorEm D MajorD
In restless dreams I walked alone
E minorEm
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
E minorEm C majorC G+G
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
E minorEm C majorC G+G
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
C majorC
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon
G+G
light
E minorEm
That split the night
D MajorD E minorEm
And touched the sound of silence.
E minorEm D MajorD
And in the naked light I saw
E minorEm
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
E minorEm C majorC G+G
People talking without speaking,
E minorEm C majorC G+G
People hearing without listening,
C majorC G+G
People writing songs that voices never share
E minorEm
And no one dare
D MajorD E minorEm
Disturb the sound of silence.
E minorEm D MajorD
Fools said i, you do not know
E minorEm
Silence like a cancer grows.
E minorEm C majorC G+G
Hear my words that I might teach you,
E minorEm C majorC G+G
Take my arms that I might reach you.
C majorC G+G
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
E minorEm
And echoed
D MajorD E minorEm
In the wells of silence
E minorEm D MajorD
And the people bowed and prayed
E minorEm
To the neon God they made.
E minorEm C majorC G+G
And the sign flashed out it's warning,
E minorEm C majorC G+G
In the words that it was forming.
E minorEm C majorC
And the sign said, the words of the prophets
C majorC G+G
Are written on the subway walls
E minorEm
And tenement halls.
D MajorD E minorEm
And whispered in the sounds of silence.
