The sound of silence - Paul Simon ft. Art Garfunkel

Sloka 1

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

Sloka 2

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

Sloka 3

Gm F And in the naked light I saw Gm Ten thousand people, maybe more Eb Hb People talking without speaking Eb Hb People hearing without listening Eb Hb People writing songs that voices never share Hb/A Gm And no one dare Hb F Gm Disturb the sound of silence

Sloka 4

Gm F "Fools", said I, "you do not know" Gm "Silence like a cancer grows" Eb Hb "Hear my words that I might teach you" Eb Hb "Take my arms that I might reach you" Eb Hb Hb/A Gm But my words like silent raindrops fell Hb F Gm And echoed in the wells of silence

Sloka 5

Gm F And the people bowed and prayed Gm To the neon god they made Eb Hb And the sign flashed out its warning Eb Hb In the words that it was forming Eb And the sign said: "The words of the prophets" Hb "Are written on the subway walls" Hb Hb/A Gm "And tenement halls" Hb F Gm "And whispered in the sounds of silence"
