Biography:
Dream Theater is an American progressive metal band formed in 1985 under the name Majesty by John Petrucci, John Myung and Mike Portnoy while they attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. They subsequently dropped out of their studies to concentrate further on the band that would ultimately become Dream Theater. Though a number of lineup changes followed, the three original members remained together until September 8, 2010, when Portnoy left the band. Mike Mangini was announced as the new permanent drummer on April 29, 2011.

THE SILENT MAN - Dream Theater (Awake)
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
[VERSE]
G D
A question well served,
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Is silence like a fever?
G D
A voice never heard?
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Or a message with no receiver?
[PRE-CHORUS]
Em Em9 Am7 Em11/A Em Em9
Pray they won't ask behind the stained glass
D11/C D/C
There's always one more mask
[VERSE]
G D
Has man been a victim
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Of his woman, of his father?
G D
If he elects not to bother
Em/C# Cadd9 Csus4
Will he suffocate their faith?
[PRE-CHORUS]
Em Em9 Am7 Em11/A Em Em9
Desperate to fall behind the Great Wall
D11/C D/C
That separates us all
[CHORUS]
E F#m A B
When there is reason, tonight I'm awake
E F#m A B E Eadd9 E
When there's no answer, arrive the silent man
E F#m A B
If there is balance, tonight He's awake
E F#m A B E Eadd9 E
If they have to suffer, there lies the silent man
[INTERLUDE]

[PRE-CHORUS]
Em9 Am7 Em11/A Em Em9
Sin without deceivers, a God with no believers
D11/C D/C
I could sail by on the winds of silence
Em Cadd9
And maybe they won't notice
D
But this time I think it'd be better if I swim
E F#m A B
When there is reason, tonight I'm awake
E F#m A B E Eadd9 E
When there's no answer, arrive the silent man
E F#m A B
If there is balance, tonight He's awake
E F#m A B E Eadd9 E
If they have to suffer, there lies the silent man
A B E
There lies the silent man
