VINCENT ACORDES
[Start] [Verse] G Starry starry night Am Paint your palette blue and grey C Look out on a summer's day Cmaj7 D G With eyes that know the darkness in my soul G Shadows on the hills Am Sketch the trees and the daffodils C Cmaj7 Catch the breeze and the winter chills D D7 G In colors on the snowy linen land Am Now I understand D G ■ What you tried to say to me Em Am7 And how you suffered for your sanity D Em ■ And how you tried to set them free Am A7 Am They would not listen they did not know how ■ Dsus4 G Perhaps they'll listen now G Starry starry night Am Flaming flowers that brightly blaze Cmaj7 Swirling clouds in violet haze D D7 G Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue G Colors changing hue Am Morning fields of amber grain C Cmaj7 Weathered faces lined in pain D G Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand Am Now I understand D G ■ What you tried to say to me Em Am7 ■ And how you suffered for your sanity D Em ■ And how you tried to set them free Em7 Am They would not listen they did not know how [Chorus] Am7 Dsus4 D G ■ Perhaps they'll listen now Am For they could not love you D7 G ■ But still your love was true Em Am ■ And when no hope was left in sight [Verse] C On that starry starry night G F E7 You took your life as lovers often do Am C But I could have told you Vincent Cmaj7 This world was never meant for one D Dsus4 G As beautiful as you G Starry starry night Am Portraits hung in empty halls C Frameless heads on nameless walls D G With eyes that watch the world and can't forget C G C Like the strangers that you've met ■ G Am The ragged men in ragged clothes C A silver thorn a bloody rose D G Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow Am D Now I think I know [Chorus] G Em What you tried to say to me Am D And how you suffered for your sanity ■ Em And how you tried to set them free Am They would not listen they're not listening still [Outro] D G Perhaps they never will [End]
