Hello darkness, my old friend,
, d6 M/ F; D0 N+ n; K% E6 `2 RIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain

Within the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,

And no one deared

And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
