HEmello, darkness, my old friend. D
I've come to talk with you again, Em
Because a vision softly creeping C G
Left its seeds while I was sleeping, C G
And the vision thatC was planted in my brain G
still remains Em
GWithin the sound of sDilence. Em
In restless dreams I walked alone, D
Narrow streets of cobblestone. Em
'Neath the halo of a street lamp, C G
I turned my collar to the cold and damp,C G
When my eyes were stCabbed by the flash by a neon light G
That split the night Em
AndG touched the sound of silenDce. Em
And in the naked light I saw D
Ten thousand people, maybe more: Em
People talking without speaking, C G
People hearing without listening, C G
People writing songs that voCices never shared? G
No one dared Em
DisGturb the sound of sDilence. Em
"Fools!" said I, "You do not know D
Silence like a cancer grows. Em
Hear my words that I might teach you, C G
Take my arms that I might reach you." C G
But my words like Csilent raindrops fell, G Em
EchoedG
In the wells of Dsilence. Em
And the people bowed and prayed D
To the neon god they made, Em
And the sign flashed out its warning, C G
In the words that it was forming, C G
And the sign said, "The words of the prophCets are written on the subway walls G
And tenement halls Em
And whispered Gin the sounds of silenceD. Em
