The Sound Of Silence Chords
Song : The Sound Of Silence
Singer : Simon And Garfunkel
Capo : 6th fret
[Verse 1]
(Am)Hello darkness, my old (G)frien,
I’ve come to talk with you (Am)again,
Because a vision soft(F)ly creep(C)ing,
Left its seeds while I (F)was slee(C)ping,
And the (F)vision that was planted in my (C)brain
Still remains(C/B) (Am)
(C)Within the (G)sound of (Am)silence.
[Verse 2]
In restless dreams I (G)walked alone
Narrow streets of cobble(Am)stone,
‘neath the halo of (F)a street (C)lamp,
I turned my collar to the (F)cold and (C)damp
When my (F)eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon (C)light
That split the night(C/B)(Am)
(C)And touched the (G)sound of (Am)silence.
[Verse 3]
And in the naked light I (G)saw
Ten thousand people, maybe (Am)more.
People talking with(F)out spea(C)king,
People hearing with(F)out liste(C)ning,
People writing (F)songs that voices never (C)share
And no one dare(C/B)(Am)
(C)Disturb the (G)sound of (Am)silence.
[Verse 4]
Fools said I, you do not (G)know
Silence like a cancer (Am)grows.
Hear my words that I (F)might teach (C)you,
Take my arms that I (F)might reach (C)you.
But my (F)words like silent raindrops (C)fell,(C/B)(Am)
And(C) echoed
In the (G)wells of (Am)silence
[Verse 5]
And the people bowed and (G)prayed
To the neon God they (Am)made.
And the sign flashed out (F)its war(C)ning,
In the words that it (F)was for(C)ming.
And the sign said, the (F)words of the prophets
Are written on the subway (C)walls
And tenement (C)halls.(C/B)(Am)
And (C)whisper’d in the (G)sounds of (Am)silence.
