The Sound Of Silence — Beginner Piano Tutorial

Hel lo dark ness, my old (C)friend, I’ve come to talk with you a (Dm)gain, be cause a (F)vi sion soft ly (Bb)creep (F)ing left its seeds while I was (Bb)sleep (F)ing. And the (Bb)vi sion that was plant ed in my (F)brain still re mains with in the (C)sound of (Dm)si lence. In rest less dreams I walked a (C)lone nar row streets of cob ble (Dm)stone, ’neath the (F)ha lo of a (Bb)street lamp, I turned my col lar to the (Bb)cold and damp when my (Bb)eyes were stabbed by the flash of a ne on (F)light that split the night and touched the (C)sound of (Dm)si lence. And in the na ked light I (C)saw ten sand peo ple, may be (Dm)more. Peo ple (F)talk ing with out (Bb)speak ing, I peo ple hear ing with out (Bb)lis ten ing, peo ple (Bb)writ ing songs by that voic es a nev er (F)share, and no one dare dis turb the (C)sound of (Dm)si lence. “Fools!” said I, “You do not (C)know si lence like a can cer (Dm)grows.” “Hear my (F)words that I might (Bb)teach you. Take my arms that I might (Bb)reach you.” But my (Bb)words like si lent rain drops (F)fell, and (F)ech oed in the (C)wells of (Dm)si lence. And the peo ple bowed and (C)prayed to the ne on god they (Dm)made. And the (F)sign flashed out its (Bb)warn ing in the words that it was (Bb)form ing. And the sign said the (Bb)words of the proph ets are writ ten on the sub way (F)walls and ten e ment halls, and (F)whis per’d in the (C)sounds of (Dm)si lence.
