The other versions of The Silence may be correct for the version they have, but the acoustic

*Intro: C, Am, F, G

*Verse:
C                         Am
I remember a conversation at a restaurant
F
With a friend of mine, he?d a successful mind
G
And he told me of his life
C
And the plans he?d made to come this far
Am                                              F
Had gone so well and now we?re all so proud of him
And he told me how
G
But I couldn?t bear to listen

*Chorus:
C
Cause all my life I?ve heard
              Am
Of the dreams of the organized
          F
To be the best in the company
           G
To win the awards but that?s not me
C                            Am
Cause all my life all I ever wanted
F                                      G
Was a love that lasted longer than the silence

*Verse:
C
I had to say that I had to leave
Am
Cause it was on my mind
            F
That all he set in me were insecurities
G
But that dream was never mine
C
Cause the plans I thought I?d made so far
    Am                                    F
Had gone alright but all that I feel now is doubt
And he told me why
G
But I couldn?t bear to listen

*Chorus:
C
Cause all my life I?ve heard
              Am
Of the dreams of the organized
          F
To be the best in the company
           G
To win the awards but that?s not me
C                            Am
Cause all my life all I ever wanted
F                                      G
Was a love that lasted longer than the silence
