*WOW! Disturbed did a fine job of covering this song!
This was just so beautiful.
[Verse I]
F#m E Hello darkness, my old friend,
F#mI've come to talk with you again,
D ABecause a vision softly creeping,
D ALeft it's seeds while I was sleeping,
D AAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
F#mStill remains
E F#mWithin the sound of silence.
[Verse II]
F#m EIn restless dreams I walked alone
F#mNarrow streets of cobblestone,
F#m D A'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
D AI turned my collar to the cold and damp
D AWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
F#m AThat split the night
E F#mAnd touched the sound of silence.
[Verse III]
F#m E And in the naked light I saw
F#mTen thousand people, maybe more.
D APeople talking without speaking,
D APeople hearing without listening,
D APeople writing songs that voices never share
F#mAnd no one dare
E F#mDisturb the sound of silence.
[Verse IV]
F#m E Fools said I, you Do not know
F#mSilence like a cancer grows.
D AHear my words that I might teach you,
D ATake my arms that I might reach you.
D ABut my words like silent raindrops fell,
F#mAnd echoed
E F#mIn the wells of silence
[Verse V]
F#m E And the people bowed and prayed
F#mTo the neon God they made.
D AAnd the sign flashed out it's warning,
D AIn the words that it was forming.
DAnd the sign said, the words of the prophets
AAre written on the subway walls
F#mAnd tenement halls.
E F#mAnd whispered in the sounds of silence.
