[Verse 1]
G G C G
Starry, starry night,
G
paint your palette
Am
Blue and grey,
Am C Cmaj7
Look out on a summer's day,
D D7 G
with eyes that know the darkness in my soul
G G C G
Shadows on the hills,
G Am
Sketch the trees and the daffodills
Am C Cmaj7
Catch the breeze and the winter chills, in
D7 G C G
colors on the snowy linen land
[Chorus]
G Am D
Now I under stand
D7 G D/F# Em
what you tried to say to me
Em Am
and how you suffered for your sanity
D7 Em
How you tried to set them free,
Em A7 C
they would not listen, they did not know how,
D G
Perhaps they'll listen now
[Verse 2]
G G C G
Starry, starry night,
G
flaming flowers that
Am Am C
Brightly blaze, swirling clouds in violet haze
D G
Reflecting Vincent’s eyes of China Blue
G G C G
Colors changing hue,
G Am
Morning fields of amber grain
Am C
Weathered faces lined in pain
D D7 G
Are soothed beneath the artists loving hand
[Chorus]
G Am D7
And now I understand
D G D/F# Em
what you tried to say to me
Em Am7 D7
how you suffered for your sanity
D7 Em
How you tried to set them free,
Em A7 C
they would not listen, they did not know how,
D7 G
Perhaps they'll listen now
[Bridge]
G Am D7
For they could not love you,
D7 G D/F# Em
but still your love was true
Em Am
And when no hope was left in sight
Cm
On that starry, starry night, you
G F E7
took your life as lovers often do
Am C
But I could have told you, Vincent, this world was
C D7 G C G
Never meant for one as beautiful as you
[Verse 3]
G G C G
Starry, starry night,
G Am
portraits hung in empty halls
Am C
framless heads on nameless walls
D D7 G
with eyes that watch the world and can’t forget
G
Like the strangers that you’ve met
G Am
The ragged men in ragged clothes
Am C
A silver thorn, a bloody rose, lie
D D7 G
Crushed and broken on the virgin snow
G Am D7
And now I think I know,
D7 G D/F# Em
what you tried to say to me,
Em Am D7
how you suffered for your sanity
D7 Em
How you tried to set them free,
Em A7 C
They would not listen, they’re not listening still,

Perhaps the never....will
