Vincent chords and lyrics - DON MCLEAN

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
Starry, starry [G]night[C][G]
Paint your palette [Am]blue and gray
Look out on a [C]summer's day
With [D]eyes that know the darkness in my [G]soul

[Verse 2]
Shadows on the [G]hills[C][G]
Sketch the [Am]trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze [C]and the winter chills
In [D]colors on the snowy, linen [G]land[C][G]

[Chorus 1]
Now, I under[Am]stand[D]
what you tried [G]to say [Bm]to me
[Em]And how you suffered for your [Am]sanity
[D]And how you tried to set them fre[Em]e
They would not listen, they did [A]not know how
[Am]Perhaps [D]they'll list[G]en now

[Verse 3]
Starry, starry [G]night[C][G]
Flaming flowers [Am]that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds [C]in violet haze
Re[D]flect in Vincent's eyes of china [G]blue

[Verse 4]
Colors changing [G]hue[C][G]
Morning fields [Am]of amber grain
Weathered faces [C]lined in pain
[D]Are soothed beneath the artist's loving [G]hand

[Chorus 2]
Now, I under[Am]stand[D]
what you tried [G]to say [Bm]to me
[Em]And how you suffered for your [Am]sanity
[D]And how you tried to set them fre[Em]e
They would not listen, they did [A]not know how
[Am]Perhaps [D]they'll listen now[G]

[Bridge 1]
For they could not [Am]love you
[D]But still your love was tru[G]e[Bm]
[Em]And when no hope[Am] was left inside
On that [Cm]starry, starry, night
You [G]took your life as [F]lovers often [E]do
But [Am]I could have told you, Vincent
[C]This world was never [C]meant for one
[D]As beautiful [G]as you

[Verse 5]
Starry, starry [G]night[C][G]
Portraits hung [Am]in empty halls
Frameless heads [C]on nameless walls
With [D]eyes that watch the world
and can't for[G]get

[Verse 6]
Like the strangers that [G]you've [C]met
The [G]ragged men in [Am]ragged clothes
The silver thorn of [C]bloody rose
Lie [D]crushed and broken on the virgin [G]snow

[Chorus 3]
Now, I think I [Am]know[D]
what you tried [G]to say [Bm]to me
[Em]And how you suffered for your [Am]sanity
[D]And how you tried to set them fre[Em]e
They would not listen,
they're not [A]listening still
[Am]Perh[D]aps they never will[G]
[G][G]
