Stary Stary Night (Vincent)

Starry starry [G]night,
paint your palette [Am]blue and grey
Look out on a [C]summer's day
with [D7]eyes that know the darkness in my [G]soul

Shadows on the [G]hills,
sketch the trees and the [Am]daffodills
Catch the breeeze and the [C]winter chills,
in [D7]colors on the snowy linen [G]land [C] [G]

Now I under[Am]stand
[D7]what you tried to [G]say to me
[Em]How you suffered for you [Am7]sanity[D7]
How you tried to set them [Em]free
They would not listen they did [A7]not know [Am7]how [D7]
Perhaps they'll listen [G]now

Starry starry [G]night,
flaming flowers that [Am]brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in [C]violet haze [D7]
reflect in Vincent's eyes of china [G]blue

Colors changing [G]hue,
morning fields of amber [Am]grain
Weathered faces [C]lined in pain
are [D7]soothed 'neath the artists's loving [G]hand [C] [G]

{c: chorus}

[G]For they could not [Am7]love you, [D7]but still your love was [G]true [F#] [E]
And when no [Am7]hope was left in sight,
on that [Cm]starry starry night
You [G]took your life as [F7]lovers often [E7]do,

But I [Am7]could have told you, Vincent,
This [C]world was never meant for one as [D7]beautiful as you

Stary, starry [G]night,
portraits hung in [Am]empty halls
Frameless heads on [C]nameless walls with [D7]eyes that watch the world and can't for[G]get.

Like the stranger that you've [G]met, the ragged man in [Am]ragged clothes
The silver thorn of [C]bloody rose,
lie [D7]crushed and broken on the virgin [G]snow [C] [G]

Now I th[Am]ink I know
[D7]what you tried to [G]say to me
[Em]How you suffered for you [Am7]sanity[D7]
How you tried to set them [Em]free

They would not listen
they're [A7]not listening [Am7]still [D7]
Perhaps they never [G]will
