G G4 G |
Starry starry night |
Am |
Paint your palette blue |
Aadd9 Am |
And grey |
Aadd9 C Cmaj7 |
Look out on a summers day |
D7 |
With eyes that know the darkness |
G |
In my soul |
G G4 G |
Shadows on the hills |
G |
Sketch the trees |
Am Aadd9 Am |
And the daffodills |
Aadd9 C |
Catch the breeze and the |
Cmaj7 |
Winter chills |
D7 G |
In colors on the snowy linen land |
Am D7 |
Now I understand |
G G/F# Em |
What you tried to say to me |
Em Am |
And how you suffered for your |
Aadd9 D7 |
Sanity |
D7 Em |
And how you tried to set them free |
Em |
They would not listen |
A7 Am |
They did not know how |
D7 G |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
G G4 G |
Starry starry night |
G Am |
Flaming flowers |
Aadd9 Am |
That brightly blaze |
Aadd9 C Cmaj7 |
Swirling clouds in violet haze |
D7 |
Reflect in Vincents eyes |
G |
Of china blue |
G G4 G |
Colors changing hue |
G Am Aadd9 Am |
Morning fields of amber grain |
Aadd9 C Cmaj7 |
Weathered faces lined in pain |
D7 |
Are soothed beneath the artists |
G |
Loving hand |
Am D7 |
Now I understand |
G G/F# Em |
What you tried to say to me |
Em Am |
And how you suffered for your |
Aadd9 D7 |
Sanity |
D7 Em |
And how you tried to set them free |
Em |
They would not listen |
A7 Am |
They did not know how |
D7 G |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
Am D7 |
For they could not love you |
D7 |
But still your love |
G G/F# Em |
Was true |
Em Am |
And when no hope was left in sight |
Cm |
On that starry starry night |
G F |
You took your life as lovers |
E7 |
Often do |
Am |
But I could've told you Vincent |
C Cmaj7 |
This world was never meant |
D7 G |
For one as beautiful as you |
G G4 G |
Starry starry night |
G Am Aadd9 Am |
Portraits hung in empty halls |
Aadd9 C Cmaj7 |
Frameless heads on nameless walls |
D7 |
With eyes that watch the |
G |
World and cant forget |
G |
Like the strangers |
G G4 |
That you've met |
G |
The ragged men |
Am Aadd9 Am |
In ragged clothes |
Aadd9 C |
The silver thorn of bloody rose |
D7 |
Lie crushed and broken on |
G |
The virgin snow |
Bridge: |
Aadd9 Aadd9 G Am x2 |
Am D7 |
Now I think I know |
G G/F# Em |
What you tried to say to me |
Em Am |
And how you suffered for your |
D7 |
Sanity |
D7 Em |
And how you tried to set them free |
Em |
They would not listen |
A7 Am |
They're not listening still |
D7 G |
Perhaps they never will |
