Hel-lo dark-ness, my old friend

-3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -4 4 4

I’ve come to talk with you a-gain

4 4 4 5 5 6 6_-6_ -6 6

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

4 4 5 5 6 6_-6 -6 6

Left its seeds while I was_ sleep-ing

4 4 -6 -6 -6 -7 7 7 -7 -6 6

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

Still re-mains

4 4 4 6 -3 4 -3”

With-in the sound of sil-ence

-3” -3” -3” 4 4 5 5 -4

In rest-less dreams I walked a-lone

-3 -3 -3 -3 -4 -4 4

Nar-row streets of cob-ble-stone

‘Neath the ha-lo of a___ street lamp

-4 -4 4 -3 -3” 3 2 -6_6 -5 6

I turned my col-lar to the cold__ and damp

4 4 -6 -6 -6

When my eyes were stabbed

-6 -7 7 7 7 -6 -5 5

by the flash of a ne-on light

4 -6 6 5

That split the night

4 4 4 6 -3 4 -3”

And touched the sound of sil-ence

3 3 3 4 4 5 4 -4

And in the nak-ed light I saw

-3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -4 -3 4

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

4 4 5 5 6 6_-6 -6 6

Peo-ple talk-ing with-out_ speak-ing

4 4 5 5 6 6_-6 -6 6

Peo-ple hear-ing with-out_ list’n-ing

4 4 5 6 -6 -7

Peo-ple writ-ing songs that

7 7 -7 -6 6

Voic-es nev-er share

4 -6 6 5

And no one dared

4 4 4 6 -3 4 -3”

Dis-turb the sound of sil-ence

3 3 4 4 5 4 -4

“Fools”, said I, “You do not know

-3 -3 -3 -3 -4 -3 4

Sil-ence like a can-cer grows

4 4 5 5 6 6_-6 -6 6

Hear my words that I might teach you

7 -7 -6 6 5 4_-6 -6 6

Take my arms that I might reach you”

4 4 -6 -7 7 7 -7 -6 6

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

4 4 4 4 4 6 -3 4 -3”

And ech-oed in the wells of sil-ence

3 3 4 4 5 4 -4

And the peo-ple bowed and prayed

5 5 5 5 5 -5 -5

To the ne-on god they made

4 4 5 5 6 6_-6 -6 6

And the sign flashed out its_ warn-ing

7 -7 -6 6 5 4_-6 -6 6

In the words that it was_ form-ing

4 4 5 6 6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6

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

-7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6

are writ-ten on the sub-way walls

4 -6 -6 6 5

And ten-e-ment halls”

4 4 4 4 4 6_________________ -3 4 -3”

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