[F#m] [E] [A] [F#m] [E]
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe[F#m] more
People talking wit[D]hout spe[A]aking
People hearing wit[D]hout list[A]ening
People writ[D]ing songs
That voices nev[A]er share
And no [F#m]one dared
Disturb [E]the sound of silence
e|-------------------| B|----2-0-2---2---2--| G|----------2---1----| D|--4----------------| A|-------------------| E|-------------------|
[F#m] "Fools" said I, "you do not[E] know
Silence like a cance[F#m]r grows
Hear my words that I m[D]ight teach [A]you
Take my arms that I [D]might reach to [A]you"
But my[D] words like silent raindrops [A]fell
[F#m] And echoed in the [E]wells of silence
e|-------------------| B|----2-0-2---2---2--| G|----------2---1----| D|--4----------------| A|-------------------| E|-------------------|
[F#m] And the people bowed and[E] prayed
To the neon God[F#m] they made
And the sign flashed out [D]its w[A]arning
In the words that it [D]was f[A]orming
And the sign said
"The [D]words of the prophets
Are written on the subway [A]walls
And tenem[F#m]ent halls"
And [E]whispered in the sound of silence
