C#
In restless dreams I walked alone,
Em
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
B F
'neath the halo of a streetlamp,
B F
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
B F
when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light,
Em
that split the night
C# Em
and touched the sound of silence.
C#
And in the naked light I saw,
Em
Ten thousand people maybe more,
B F
People talking without speaking,
B F
People hearing without listening,
B F
People writing songs that voices never share,
Em
No one dare,
C# Em
Disturb the sound of silence.
C#
Fools said I you do not know,
Em
Silence like a cancer grows,
B F
Hear my words that I might teach you,
B F
Take my arms that I might reach you,
B F
But my words, like silent raindrops fell,
Em C# Em
And echoed the will of silence.
B F
And the people bowed and prayed,
B F
To the neon god they made,
B F
And in the sign flashed out it's warning,
B F
In the words that it was forming,
B
And the sign said the words of the prophets
F
Are written on the subway walls,
Em
And tenement halls,
C# F
And whisper the sounds of silence.
