D G Starry, starry nightAm Paint your palette blue and grayC Look out on a summer's dayD With eyes that know the darkness inG my soulG Shadows on the hillsAm Sketch the trees and the daffodilsC Catch the breeze and the winter chillsD G In colours on the snowy linen land [Chorus]Em Am D Now I understandG What you tried to say to meAm D How you suffered for your sanityG How you tried to set them freeAm They would not listen, they did not know howC D G Perhaps they'll listen now [Verse 2]D G Starry, starry nightAm Flaming flowers that brightly blazeContinues after the adC Swirling clouds in violet hazeD Reflect in Vincent's eyes of ChinaG blueD G Colours changing hueAm Morning fields of amber grainC Weathered faces lined in painD Are soothed beneath the artist'sG loving hand [Chorus]Em Am D Oh, now I understandG What you tried to say to meAm D How you suffered for your sanityG How you tried to set them freeAm They would not listen, they did not know howC D G Perhaps they'll listen now [Bridge]Em C For they could not love you, loveD youG Em But still your love was trueAm And when no hope was left in sightD on that starry, starry nightBm D You took your life as lovers oftenG doC But I could have told you, VincentEm Am This world was never meant for oneD G as beautiful as you [Verse 3]D G Oh, starry, starry nightAm Portraits hung in empty hallsC Frameless heads on nameless wallsD With eyes that watch the world andG can't forgetD G Like the strangers that you've metAm The ragged men in ragged clothesC The silver thorn of a bloody roseD Lie crushed and broken on theG virgin snow [Chorus]Em Am D Now I think I knowG Oh, what you tried to say to meC How you suffered for your sanityD G How you tried to set them free They would not listen, they're notAm listening stillD G Perhaps they never will
