Starry, starry night, paint your palette
Am Am C
Blue and grey, Look out on a summer's day,
D D G
with eyes that know the darkness in my soul
G G
Shadows on the hills,
C Am
Sketch the trees and daffodills
C Am
Catch the breeze and winter chills, in
D D G
colors on the snowy linen land
G Am Am
And now I under stand what you tried to
G Am Am
Say to me, how you suffered for your sanity
C G
How you tried to set them free,
C C Am
they would not listen, they did not know how,
D G
Perhaps they'll listen now
G G G
Starry, starry night, flaming flowers that
Am Am C
Brightly blaze, swirling clouds in violet haze
D D G
Reflecting Vincent’s eyes of China Blue
G G
Colors changing hue,
C Am
Morning fields of amber grain
C Am
Weathered faces lined with pain
D D G
Are soothed beneath the artists loving hand
G Am Am
And now I under stand what you tried to
G Am Am
say to me, how you suffered for your sanity
C G
How you tried to set them free,
C Am
they would not listen, they did not know how,
D G
Perhaps they'll listen now
C
For they could not love you,
C G
but still your love was true
C C
And when no hope was left in sight
C C
On that starry, starry night,
G G G
you took your life as lovers sometimes do
Am C
But I could have told you, Vincent, this world was
D G
Never meant for one as beautiful as you
G G G
Starry, starry night, portraits hung in
Am Am C
Empty halls, fearless heads on nameless walls
D D G
with eyes that watch the world and can’t forget
G G
Like the strangers that you’ve met
C Am
The ragged men in ragged clothes
C Am
The silver thorn of bloody rose, lie
D D G
Crushed and broken on the virgin snow
G Am Am
And now I think I know, what you tried to
G Am Am
say to me, how you suffered for your sanity
C G
How you tried to set them free,
C Am
They would not listen, they’re not listening still,
D G
Perhaps the never will…
