[Intro]

[Verse]
G                    
■ Starry starry night
                   Am7      Am  
Paint your palette blue and gray
Am7           Cmaj7       
Look out on a summer's day
Dsus4                                  G   
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
G                   
Shadows on the hills
                 Am               
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
                 Cmaj7            
Catch the breeze and winter chills
   G             D7          G   
In colors on the snowy linen land
      Am         Am7
Now I understand ■  
D          D7           G     Em
■ What you tried to say to me ■ 
                          Am7   
How you suffered for your sanity
Dsus4   D7                    
How you tried to set them free
Em                                 A7      
They would not listen they did not know how
D7                     G  
Perhaps they'll listen now
              G    
Starry starry night
                     Am            
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Cmaj7                         
Swirling clouds in violet haze
           D                       G   
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
                G  
Colors changing hue


[Chorus]
                  Am         
Morning fields of amber grain
Am7                 Cmaj7        
■   Weathered faces lined in pain
    D                                   G   
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
         Am7       
Oh now I understand


[Verse]
Dsus4 D                   G        
■     ■ What you tried to say to me
Em                        Am7   
How you suffered for your sanity
D7                        Em  
How you tried to set them free
                               A7       Dsus4
They would not listen they did not know how  
                       G  
Perhaps they'll listen now
               Am7               D  
For they could not love you love you
               G             Em
But still your love was true ■ 
            Am                    
And when no hope was left in sight
        Cmaj7              
On that starry starry night


[Chorus]
G                                  Em7 E7
You took your life as lovers often do  ■ 
      Am                         
But I could have told you Vincent
C                         
This world was never meant
        D            G         
For one as beautiful as you ohh
              G    
Starry starry night
Am                           
Portraits hung in empty halls


[Verse]
          C                 D    
Frameless heads on nameless walls
D7                                 G           
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
                   G              
Like the strangers that you've met


[Chorus]
           Am                   
The ragged men in ragged clothes
Am7      C                     
A silver thorn of a bloody rose
D7                            G          
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
      Am           D
Now I think I know ■
D7 D        D7    G         Em
Oh what you tried to say to me
                 Am              Am7
How you suffered for your sanity ■  
D                    Em7      
How you tried to set them free
               Am                           A7    D
They would not listen they're not listening still ■
             G         
Perhaps they never will


[Outro]
