[Verse 1]

 F#m                E 
Hello darkness, my old friend 
                         F#m 
I've come to talk with you again 
                  D      A 
Because a vision softly creeping 
            F#m        D      A 
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
 F#m     D               D2      D     A 
And the vision that was planted in my brain
        F#m              E        F#m 
Still remains within the sound of silence

[Verse 2]

 F#m                        E 
In restless dreams I walked alone
                  F#m 
Narrow streets of cobblestone
                   D        A 
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
                F#m       D        A 
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
        D                          D2      D     A 
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
     F#m        A 
That split the night
 F#m             E        F#m 
And touched the sound of silence


[Verse 3]

 F#m                E 
And in the naked light I saw
                         F#m 
Ten thousand people, maybe more
                  D       A 
People talking without speaking
                  D       A 
People hearing without listening
               D          D2     D     A 
People writing songs that voices never share
           F#m   A - F#m 
And no one dare
            E        F#m 
Disturb the sound of silence


[Verse 4]

 F#m                     E 
Fools said I, you do not know
                      F#m 
Silence like a cancer grows
                      D          A 
Hear my words that I might teach you
                     D             A 
Take my arms that I might reach to you

                                       D|--5~7---------7~5~5--|
       D          D2     D         A 
But my words like silent raindrops fell
 F#m - A           E       F#m 
And echoed in the wells of silence


[Verse 5]

 F#m                      E 
And the people bowed and prayed
                   F#m 
To the neon God they made
                     D       A 
And the sign flashed out it's warning
                     D       A 
And the words that it was forming

And the sign said 
     D                        D2             D       A 
The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
                F#m 
And tenement halls
                     E          F#m 
And whispered in the sound of silence
