G C G
G C G
Starry, starry night
Am7
Paint your palette blue and gray
C CM7
Look out on a summer's day
D7 G
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
G C G
Shadows on the hills
Am7
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
C CM7
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
D7 G C G
In colors on the snowy linen land
__________
Am7 D7 G G/F#* Em
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
Em7 Am7
And how you suffered for your sanity
D7 Em
And how you tried to set them free
A7
They would not listen they did not know how
Am7 D7 G C G
Perhaps they'll listen now
__________
G C G
Starry starry night
Am7
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
C CM7
Swirling clouds in violet haze
D7 G
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
G C G
Colors changing hue
Am7
Morning fields of amber grain
C CM7
Weathered faces lined in pain
D7 G
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
__________
Am7 D7 G G/F#* Em
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
Em7 Am7
And how you suffered for your sanity
D7 Em
And how you tried to set them free
A7
They would not listen they did not know how
Am7 D7 G
Perhaps they'll listen now
__________
Am7
For they could not love you
D7 G G/F#* Em
But still your love was true
Am7 pause
And when no hope was left inside
Cm pause
On that starry, starry night
G* F* E*
You took your life as lovers often do
Am7
But I could have told you, Vincent
C
This world was never meant for one
D7 G C G
As beautiful as you
__________
G C G
Starry, starry night
Am7
Portraits hung in empty halls
C CM7
Frameless heads on nameless walls
D7 G pause
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
G C G
Like the strangers that you've met
Am7
The ragged men in ragged clothes
C
The silver thorn of bloody rose
D7 G C G
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
__________
Am7 D7 G G/F#* Em
Now, I think I know what you tried to say to me
Am7 D7
How you suffered for your sanity
Em pause
How you tried to set them free
A7
They would not listen they're not listening still
Am7 D7 G ...
Perhaps they never will
G C - G ..
