Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
For the first part, play the chord with finger-picking playing the strings in this order: C - A - E - A
Strum pattern I use: d d D d (insisting on the 3rd down)
Esus2
Esus2 D
Hello darkness my old friend
D Em
I've come to talk with you again
Em C* G
Because a vision softly creeping
G C* G
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
G C* C* G G Em
And the vision that was planted in my brain still remains
G D Esus2 Em
Within the sound of silence
D
In restless dreams I walked alone
D Em
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Em C* G
Neath the halo of a streetlamp
G C* G
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
G C* C* G
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
G Em
That split the night
G D Esus2 Em
And touched the sound of silence
D
And in the naked light I saw
D Em
Ten thousand people maybe more
Em C* G
People talking without speaking
G C* G
People hearing without listening
G C* C* G
People writing songs that voices never shared
G Em
No one dared
G D Esus2 Em
Disturb the sound of silence
D
Fools said I You do not know
D Em
Silence like a cancer grows
Em C* G
Hear my words that I might teach you
G C* G
Take my arms that I might reach you
G C* C* G
But my words like silent raindrops fell
G Em
And echoed
G D Esus2 Em
In the wells of silence
D
And the people bowed and prayed
D Em
To the neon god they made
Em C* G
And the sign flashed out its warning
G C* G
In the words that it was forming
G C* C* G
And the sign said The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
G Em
And tenement halls
G D Esus2 Em
And whispered in the sounds of silence
Play last Esus2 with the fingerpicking style like the first part to make the "slowing effect" which is so typical of this song ;-)
