5* 5* 5* 5* 5* -6 -5 -5

I’ve come to talk with you a-gain


-5 -5 -5 7* 7* 8 8_-8* -8* 8

Be-cause a vis-ion soft-ly___ creep-ing


-5 -5 6* 6* 8 8_-8* -8* 8

Left its seeds while I was_ sleep-ing


-5 -5 -8* -8* -8* 9* -9 -9 9* -8* 8

And the vis-ion that was plant-ed in my brain


-8* 8 7*

Still re-mains


-5 -5 -5 8 5* -5 -4*

With-in the sound of sil-ence


-4* -4* -4* -5 -5 7* 7* -8

In rest-less dreams I walked a-lone


5* 5* 5* 5* -6 -6 -5

Nar-row streets of cob-ble-stone


-5 -5 7* 7* 8 8_-8* -8* 8

‘Neath the ha-lo of a____ street lamp


-6 -6 -5 5* -4* 4 3* -8*_8 7* 8

I turned my col-lar to the cold_ and damp


-5 -5 -8* -8* -8*

When my eyes were stabbed


-8* 9* -9 -9 -9 -8* -7 7*

by the flash of a ne–on light


-5 -8* 8 7*

That split the night


-5 -5 -5 8 5* -5 -4*

And touched the sound of sil-ence


4 4 4 -5 -5 7* -5 -6

And in the nak-ed light I saw


5* 5* 5* 5* 5* -6 5* -5

Ten thous-and peo-ple, may-be more


-5 -5 7* 7* 8 8_-8* -8* 8

Peo-ple talk-ing with-out__ speak-ing


-5 -5 7* 7* 8 8_-8* -8* 8

Peo-ple hear-ing with-out__ list’n-ing


-5 -5 7* 8 -8* 9*

Peo-ple writ-ing songs that


-9 -9 9* -8* 8

Voic-es nev-er share


-5 -8* 8 7*

And no one dared


-5 -5 -5 8 5* -5 -4*

Dis-turb the sound of sil-ence


4 4 -5 -5 7* -5 -6

“Fools”, said I, “You do not know


5* 5* 5* 5* -6 5* -5

Sil-ence like a can-cer grows


-5 -5 7* 7* 8 8_-8* -8* 8

Hear my words that I might teach you


-9 9* -8* 8 7* -5_-8* -8* 8

Take my arms that I might_ reach you”


-5 -5 -8* 9* -9 -9 9* -8* 8

But my words, like sil-ent rain-drops fell


-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 8 5* -5 -4*

And ech-oed in the wells of sil-ence


4 4 -5 -5 7* -5 -6

And the peo-ple bowed and prayed


7* 7* 7* 7* 7* -7 -7

To the ne-on god they made


-5 -5 7* 7* 8 8_-8* -8* 8

And the sign flashed out its__ warn-ing


-9 9* -8* 8 7* -5_-8* -8* 8

In the words that it was___ form-ing


-5 -5 7* 8 8 -8* -8* -8* -8* -8*

And the sign said, “The words of the proph-ets


9* -9 -9 -9 -9 9* -8* 8

are writ-ten on the sub-way walls


-5 -8* -8* 8 7*

And ten- e -ment halls”


-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 8_________________ 5* -5 -4*

And whis-pered in the sounds____________ of sil-ence.
