The sound of silence - Paul Simon ft. Art Garfunkel

Sloka 1

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

Sloka 2

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

Sloka 3

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

Sloka 4

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

Sloka 5

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