D#m                    C#                                 D#m
Hello darkness my old friend, I've come to talk to you again.
          F#          B      F#
Because a vision softly creeping,
                       B       F#
left its seeds while I was sleeping
        B                            F#
And the vision that was planted in my brain,
        D#m     F#          C#        D#m
still remains, within the sound of silence.

D#m                           C#                                    D#m
In restless dreams I walked alone through narrow streets of cobblestone.
            F#       B       F#
Beneath the halo of a street lamp,
                          B       F#
I turned my collar to the cold and damp.
        B                                       F#
When my eyes were stabbed by a flash of the neon light,
              D#m     F#               C#        D#m
and split the night, and touched the sound of silence.

D#m                       C#                              D#m
And in the naked light I saw, ten thousand people maybe more.
       F#           B       F#
People talking without speaking,
                   B        F#
people hearing without listening.
               B                      F#
People writing songs that voices never shared,
       D#m     F#           C#        D#m
no one dared, disturb the sound of silence.

D#m                           C#                           D#m
"Fools," said I, "you do not know, silence like a cancer grows.
        F#            B          F#
Hear my words that I might teach you,
                    B          F#
take my arms that I might reach you."
       B                          F#
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
D#m            C#        D#m
echoed in the wells of silence.

D#m                       C#                            D#m
And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made.
        F#                B       F#
And the sign flashed out it s warning,
                     B      F#
in the words that it was forming.  And the sign said:
     B                                              F#
"The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls;
             D#m          F#             C#         D#m
