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