G G G G Am Am G G
G G Am Am Am Am Am Am
Am Am C C C C Em Em
D D G G Am Am G G

[Verse 1]
G G
Starry, starry night
Am Am
Paint your palette blue and gray
C C
Look out on a summer's day
D D G G
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
G G Am Am
Shadows on the hills
G G Am Am
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
C C
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
D D G G Am Am G G
In colors on the snowy linen land



[Chorus]
G G Am Am
Now I understand
D D G G D D
What you tried to say to me
Em Em Am Am
And how you suffered for your sanity
D D Em Em
And how you tried to set them free
A A C C
They would not listen, they did not know how
D D G G Am Am G G
Perhaps they'll listen now

[Verse 2]
G G G G Am Am
Starry, starry night
G G Am Am Bm Bm
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Am Am C C
Swirling clouds in a violet haze
D D G G
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Am Am G G
Colors changing hue
Am Am
Morning fields of amber grain
C C
Weathered faces lined in pain
D D G G Am Am G G
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand


[Chorus]
G G Am Am C C
Now I understand
D D G G D D
What you tried to say to me
Em Em Am Am
And how you suffered for your sanity
D D Em Em
And how you tried to set them free
Am Am C C
They would not listen, they did not know how
D D G G Am Am G G
Perhaps they'll listen now

[Instrumental]
G G Am Am G G
Am Am D D Am Am
Am Am C C C C D D
F#m F#m G G Am Am G G

[Bridge]
Am Am C C
For they could not love you
D D G G D D Em Em
But still your love was true
Am Am
And when no hope was left in sight
Cm Cm
On that starry, starry night
G G Em Em
You took your life, as lovers often do
Am Am
But I could've told you, Vincent
C C D D G G Am Am G G
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you


[Verse 3]
G G Am Am
Starry, starry night
G G Am Am
Portraits hung in empty halls
Am Am C C
Frameless heads on nameless walls
D D G G
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
G G Am Am G G
Like the strangers that you've met
G G Am Am
The ragged men in ragged clothes
C C
The silver thorn on the bloody rose
D D G G Am Am G G
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

[Outro]
G G Am Am C C
Now I think I know
D D G G D D Bm Bm
What you tried to say to me
Em Em Am Am
And how you suffered for your sanity
D D Em Em
And how you tried to set them free
A A
They would not listen, they're not listening still
C C D D G G Am Am G G
Perhaps they never will
