Verse 1:
Hello darkness, my old C#friend
I’ve come to talk with you D#magain
Because a F#vision sofBtly creepF#ing
Left its seeds while I Bwas sleepF#ing
And the Bvision that was planted in my F#brain
Still remains     D#m            F#Within the C#sound of D#msilence

 

Verse 2:
In restless dreams I walked aC#lone
Narrow streets of cobble sD#mtone
‘Neath the F#halo of Ba street F#lamp
I turned my collar to the Bcold and F#damp
When my Beyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon F#light
That split the night   D#m          F#and touched the C#sound of D#msilence

 

Verse 3:
And in the naked light I C#saw
Ten thousand people, maybe D#mmore
People F#talking withBout speaF#king
People hearing withBout listenF#ing
People writing Bsongs that voices never F#share
No one dare     D#m            F#disturb the C#sound of D#msilence

 

Verse 4:
“Fools” said I, “You do not C#know
Silence like a cancer D#mgrows
Hear my F#words that I Bmight teach F#you
Take my arms that I Bmight reach F#you”
But my Bwords like silent raindrops F#fell
D#m             And F#echoed in the C#wells of D#msilence

 

Verse 5:
And the people bowed and C#prayed
To the neon god they D#mmade
And the F#sign flashed out Bits warF#ning
In the words that it Bwas formF#ing
And the sign said “The wBords of the prophets
Are written on subway F#walls
And tenement halls      D#m         and F#whispered in the C#sounds of D#msilence”
