Sound Of Silence

Tom: Am

Introdução:

Am                                 G  
    Hello darkness, my old friend,
                                    Am  
I' ve come to talk with you again,
                            F          C  
Because a vision softly creeping,
                              F          C  
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
          F                                        C  
And the vision that was planted in my brain
                C/B    Am  
Still remains
C                G            Am  
Within the sound of silence.

                                      G  
In restless dreams I walked alone
                                Am  
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
                         F            C  
' neath the halo of a street lamp,
                                  F            C  
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
          F                                                      C  
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
                          C/B    Am  
That split the night
 C                    G            Am  
And touched the sound of silence.

                                 G  
And in the naked light I saw
                                    Am  
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
                         F          C  
People talking without speaking,
                         F            C  
People hearing without listening,
                    F                                C  
People writing songs that voices never share
                  C/B    Am  
And no one dare
C                G            Am  
Disturb the sound of silence.

                                 G  
Fools said I, you do not know
                             Am  
Silence like a cancer grows.
                            F                C  
Hear my words that I might teach you,
                          F                C  
Take my arms that I might reach you.
         F                                     C     C/B  Am  
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
    C  
And echoed
         G            Am  
In the wells of silence

                                 G  
And the people bowed and prayed
                            Am  
To the neon God they made.
                                 F         C  
And the sign flashed out its warning,
                             F        C  
In the words that it was forming.
                              F  
And the sign said, the words of the prophets
                                    C  
Are written on the subway walls
                 C        C/B  Am  
And tenement halls.
            C                G             Am  
And whisper' d in the sounds of silence.
