Intro: Play G chord, but hammer on the 3 from an open E.  Listen to recording.  He 
also hammers and pull offs a 1 on the B string

G (320003@1)                                                  Walk-up CSilence (x32010@1)is golden some may say, some may say
        C (x32010@1)                        G (320003@1)    F#?
I say silence is an aimless time to kill
      Em (022000@1)              F# (244322@1)            C (x32010@1)
Its a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day
              G (320003@1)                  F# (244322@1)            Gand (320003@1)these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds

Repeat for rest of song

Yes the sky would surely fall if my dear eardrum did fail
to beat a single time, in time or out
Some may make it out alright and some may have never known
but these old wheels spin far too loud, far too loud

For I love to hear a chorus from the morning bird choir
and the sounds of coffee boiling on the pot
How I love to hear I love you in a dry morning tone
And just assume that if I can't these wheels would stop

Yes happy is the day I lay my poor head down
with neither trial nor trouble to compete
with the chirp of summer crickets nor a tree frog's croak
And these old wheels slow down enough so that I may sleep

Solo is just the chord progression again

Silence is golden some may say, some may say
I say silence is an aimless time to kill
It's a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day
and these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds
