Welcome to this Sound Of Silence Guitar Tutorial by Simon & Garfunkel!
This is an all time classic folk/country song and just has such a great melody to it. In the lesson I’ll teach you a nice and easy fingerpicking pattern you can use for the verse/intro and then some nice and easy strummed chords. The trickiest part about this song is the small variances in timing between verses to suit to vocals.

The amount of effort that went into these videos. In my opinion, no one comes close to your quality. You deserve every bit of success that is coming your way! Thank you for making EVERY video pure gold!

[@patrickhanlon2325]

This is by far and away my favourite guitar channel on youtube your lessons are spot on. What's the best way to support you ?

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Thanks Patrick! Appreciate the thought. You can get some merchandise from my store, or join GZ2H premium. But it's not necessary :) hitting that like button and watching my videos is more than enough :)

[@georgebathman778]

You watch home and away don’t you Patrick? Haha

[@DPBracken]

An incredible lesson! Everything about it! So easy to follow, and pause, and resume. Always with the notation very visible. It is put together so well, that I am certain you are one of the best guitar teachers I have come across!! I will be visiting your site. Thanks so much for all your work putting this together.

[@victorcasillas8057]

I learned here comes from the sun from you bro. It took me about a month and a half, to do it really good. I’m looking forward to this one. Best teacher on you tube, by far.

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

You’re welcome :)

[@51mitty]

WOW, I always thought this was a hard song to play considering all the intricate finger picking S&G do, but you made it easy to play!!! Well Done. U Da Man :)

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Cheers Marty! Yeh live they certainly do a lot of improvising so it seems daunting, but as I mentioned its more important to learn the structure which is the important part and all the frills come later on :)

[@emc2968]

Great lesson from beginning to end...Thank you.

[@suemcmaster9440]

Great lesson! Thank you for your commitment to the entire lesson...appreciate it.

[@jamesrhodes1205]

You never fail to impress. Thank you so much for all that you do. Thank you for all the hard work it takes in order to create the arrangements/interpretations and shoot and edit and prepare the videos. Your videos are the reason why I stuck with the guitar through the entire pandemic. Know that you are appreciated and you are always making a difference and inspiring the next generation of musicians. I only hope that one day I will one day be able to pay it forward as well as you have done.

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Thanks James :)

[@dunn1052]

I've been listening to you for a while, you are one of the best teachers on the net. Could you please do a tutorial on Eva Cassidy some where over the rainbow. please please please.

[@akshayladdha9389]

Thanks a lot......The first S&G song I ever heard and I have been a huge fan since then.Most tutorials are not clear and seem hard but a great job done here and thanks again!!!

[@TomTom-kv5nf]

Brilliant, thanks....this is THE best guitar channel!

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Thanks!

[@shifty2755]

You're not wrong.

[@remocampagna8780]

Wow! Never thought I would have a hope in hell of playing this. You have made this so simple anybody can play this. You have real talent. Thank you so much for your effort

[@mertinmanchester]

It is another, great video lesson man! Thank you so much

[@Celest14l]

Most relevant chanel on the market! Big thank you from Russia 🇷🇺 and never stop, man! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Thanks so much! 😃

[@mcasko]

Great Tutorial. Thanks for the tips on timing. Great way to lay out the general structure of a song. I always seem to struggle with this issue. I find it easy to learn a standard 4/4 song, but if song changes timing mid verse and varies like this, it can get very frustrating.

[@laruetien]

I really love it. Thanks for sharing it, you're the best 😍

[@nikitanikita6000]

bravo et merci pour ce travail de très grande qualité pour moi le meilleurs de tous pour la propreté du jeu des explications tous les tutos de ce monsieur sont parfaits

[@mayqui6587]

Muchas gracias por tus vídeos son muy buenos, I wish you would have a book of all your guitar chords, greetings from bolivia 🇧🇴 continue with the best content

[@budandbean1]

Very nice work Dave. This is one of the first songs I ever learned back in 1973 when I was thirteen and I sure wish I had your channel and the internet back then because you should have seen how this was written in sheet music back then, especially the chorded part. The original chorded part was really tough when I was first learning. (If you listen to the original song you know what I mean) Thank you for working up these older tunes, they are so ageless and fun to hear played again. Buddy

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Haha I can’t even imagine! Thanks for the continual support :)

[@marthaasinomera7858]

Wow!!!Much awaited one...🤗👍 Thank you so much for sharing 🙏

[@kevhall6317]

[@TuanTran-ev3og]

Dave my brother, thanks you so so much. I've been through several instructors and none are able to teach me like you can. To sum it up you've brought so much joy into my life. This song is my favorite and I been playing it everyday since I found this tutorial. I pray someday you can find the time to make a guitar tutorial of "The Boxer" also by Simon & Garfunkel and maybe "Going Home" by Dire Straights. Take care Dave.

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Glad to help :) thanks for taking the time to leave this lovely comment :)

[@DanielButlergungfu1967]

Thank you for your videos.

[@irenelouduhamel4390]

This is so cool, I love the song :)

[@martinaplank4489]

Thank you!!! Very good explanation!!

[@raqueldelacruz2561]

Sound of silence is one of my favorite song. Thank you sir.

[@ellenchang9922]

Love your tutorials!! If possible you should consider doing one for "Sorry would go a long way" by Tori Kelly! I love that song and I haven't been able to find a good guitar tutorial for it!

[@manub6556]

Amazing ❤

[@xhell84]

I was thinking about getting private lessons since I am beginner, after practicing this song here, although I am still struggling with changing between THE F*** and C, I decided to stay here. well done, very organized and straight to the point which one should learn to master the song. Best lesson sofar I had for the last 2 months. I would be happy if a demo version of the Premium membership would be available . or just pay for the day you practice since must of us has jobs to do and might be able to practice once a week or two. regards from Berlin

[@davidkervella6039]

Thanks for this lesson, the best I have seen. I looked for a long time for a similar tutorial in French but they are not as good.

[@pradeepjungkarki4510]

thanks sir you are brilliant and awesome such a great teacher

[@stu2820]

Hi Dave, love the channel, especially your classics tutorials. I'd love it if you could follow this up with the boxer. 🤗

What are you doing to me! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm following a course at the moment, but I so want to fingerpick more than strum, and House of the Rising Sun and now this one, were the first of your channel to pop by in the feed and I LOVE THEM! I'll be getting painful fingers!
