GAm Starry starry nights paint your palette blue and grey CD7G Look out on a summer's day with eyes that know the darkness in my soul Am Shadows on the hills sketch the trees and the daffodils CD7G Catch the breeze and the winter chills in colours on the snowy linen land
AmD7GEm Now I understand what you tried to say to me Am7D7Em How you suffered for you sanity How you tried to set them free A7Am7D7G They would not listen they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now
GAm Starry starry nights flaming flowers that brightly blaze CD7G Swirling clouds in violet haze reflect in Vincent's eyes of chine blue Am Colours changing hue morning fields of amber grain CD7G Weathered faces lined in pain are soothed beneath the artist # 17 s loving hand
AmD7GEm Now I understand what you tried to say to me Am7D7Em And how you suffered for your sanity How you tried to set them free A7Am7D7G They would not listen they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now
Am7D7G For they could not love you but still your love was true EmAm7Cm And when no hope was left in sight on that starry starry night GF7E7Am7 You took your life as lovers often do but I could have told you Vincent CD7G This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
GAm Starry starry nights portraits hung in empty halls CD7G Frameless heads on nameless walls with eyes that watch the world and can't forget Am Like the strangers that you've met the ragged men in ragged clothes CD7G A silver thorn a bloody rose lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
AmD7GEm Now I think I know what you tried to say to me Am7D7Em And how you suffered for your sanity and how you tried to set them free A7Am7 Would not listen they're not listening still D7G Perhaps they never will
