[D] [Dm]
[D]
[F] [Gm]
Hello darkness, [Em] [F] my old friend
I've come to talk with [Gm] you again
Because [Bb] a vision [Eb] softly [Bb] creeping
Left its seeds [Eb] while I was [Bb] sleeping
And the [Eb] vision that was planted in mine
Still remains within [F] the sound of [Gm] silence
In restless dreams I [F] walked alone
[C] Narrow streets of [Gm] cobblestone
[D] Near [Bb] the halo of [Eb] a street [Bb] lamp
I turned my collar to [Eb] the cold [Bb] and damp
[Eb] When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon [Bb] light
[Gm] That split the night [Bb] and touched [F] the sound [C]
[Gm] of silence
And in the naked light [F] I saw
Ten thousand people, [Gm] maybe more
People talking [Eb] without [Bb] speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing [Eb] songs
That voices [Bb] never share
No one dare disturb [F] the sound [Gm] of [D] silence
And the people [F] bowed and prayed
To the neon god [Gm] they made
[Bb] And the sun [Eb] flashed out each morning
[Bb]
In the words [Eb] that it was [Bb] forming
[Eb] And the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenant [Bb] halls [F] whispered the sound of [Gm] silence
[D] [Gm] [G]
