F#m E A F#m E
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybeF#m more
People talking witDhout speAaking
People hearing witDhout listAening
People writing Dsongs
That voices never Ashare
And no one dared F#m
Disturb the Esound of silence

F#m "Fools" said I, "you do notE know
Silence like a canceF#mr grows
Hear my words that I mDight teach Ayou
Take my arms that I Dmight reach to Ayou"
But myD words like silent raindrops Afell
F#m And echoed in the Ewells of silence

F#m And the people bowed andE prayed
To the neon GodF#m they made
And the sign flashed out Dits wAarning
In the words that it Dwas fAorming
And the sign said
"The Dwords of the prophets
Are written on the subway Awalls
And tenement halls"F#m
And Ewhispered in the sound of silence
