Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Sta[Bm]rry, [G]st[D]arry night[Bm]
Paint [D]your palette [G]blue and [Em]grey[C]
[Em]Look out on [D]a summer's d[Em]ay
[Ebdim]With eyes[D] that[Em] know
the [D]darkness in my [G]soul,
[Em]shadows on the hills[G].
[Bm]Sketch the trees and d[C]affodils.
[G]Cat[C]ch the breeze and
the [D]winter's chills
[Am]in colors on[C] the s[D]nowy l[G]inen land.[C]
[G]And now I [Am]understand
[D]What you tried to [G]say to [Em]me
How you suffered for [Am]your sanity
[D]How you tried to set them free
[Em]They would not listen,
they did [G]not know [A]how
[D]Perhaps they'll listen [G]now
[D]Starry, [G]starry night
Flaming flowers [C]that brightly [G]blaze
[C]Swi[G]rling clouds in [D]violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China [G]blue
Colors changing hue
Morning [Em]fields of amber [C]grain[G][C]
[G]Weathered faces [D]lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the
artist's loving [G]hand[C]
[G]And now I under[Am]stand
[D]What you tried to [G]say to [Em]me
How you suffered for [Am]your sanity
[D]How you tried to set them free
[Em]They would not listen
They did [A]not know [D]how
Perhaps they'll listen now,
[G]for [D]they could [Em]not l[Am]ove you,
[D]but still your love was [G]true.[D][Em]
And when no [Am]hope was left in sight
on that [Adim]starry, starry night,
You [G]took your life as [F]lovers often [Em]do
[E]But[Em] I coul[C]d have tol[Am]d you, Vincent
This world was never meant for [D]one
as Beautiful as [G]you
[Em]Starry, [G]starry night
Portraits hung in [C]empty [G]hall[C]s
[G]Frameless head[D]s on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world
and can't for[G]get
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in [C]ragged clothes
[G]The[C] silver tho[G]rn of blo[D]ody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin [G]snow
[C]An [G]d now I think I k[Am]now[D]
What you tried to [G]say to me,
[Em]how you suffered for your [Am]sanity
[D]How you tried to set them [Em]free,
they would not listen,
[G]they're not [A]listening [D]still
Perhaps they never [G]will[Em][G][C]
[G][D][G][G]
