Melanie - Silence Is King
 
 
 
INTRO: Am  Dm7 Dm Am   Dm7 Dm  Am
 
                Dm7         Dm   Am     Dm7 Dm Am
She tests every word like a fine wine
                Dm7              Dm   Am     Dm7 Dm C
She holds every thought like her last dime
                 G             Dm     Am   C
You could hear a pin drop from miles away
                 G              Bm       E
You could hear a heart stop, as plain as day
 
 
CHORUS:
   F         C          G          Dm
We live in a land where silence is king
F             C        G
Whispers have all disappeared
F          C         G            Dm7
Cry for an echo, you won't hear a thing
F          Dm7         Am
Silence is king around here
F          Dm7         Am   Dm7 Dm Am   Dm7 Dm  Am
Silence is king around here
 
 
              Dm7            Dm Am    Dm7 Dm Am
Where are the dreams we were after?
             Dm7         Dm   Am     Dm7 Dm C
Where is the joy and the laughter?
               G               Dm        Am   C
Were they only habits, we were doomed to lose
      G           Bm      E
Or is destiny not ours to choose?
 
 
CHORUS:
   F         C          G          Dm
We live in a land where silence is king
F             C        G
Whispers have all disappeared
F          C         G            Dm7
Cry for an echo, you won't hear a thing
F          Dm7         Am
Silence is king around here
F          Dm7         Am   G-C
Silence is king around here
 
 
BRIDGE:
          G                 Dm         Am    Am-G-C
Desperate measures come from desperate times
          G                Am     G-C
I don't regret what I have done
      G               Dm          Am   
If my actions make you speak your mind
Bb                          D
Angry words are better than none
 
 
CHORUS:   (## 1ST three lines sung a Capella ##)

We live in a world where silence is king
F             C        G
Whispers have all disappeared
F          C         G            Dm7
Cry for an echo, you won't hear a thing

Silence is king around here
