G
Starry,
Verse 1
G
starry night
Am
Paint your palette blue and grey
C
Look out on a summer's day
D
With eyes that know
the darkness in my soul
G
Shadows on the hills
Am
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
C
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
D
In colors on the snowy linen gland
G
C
G
Am
And now I understand
D
G
What you tried to say to me,
Em
Am
how you suffered for your san ity
D
Em
How you tried to set them free,
they would not listen, they
A
did not know how
Am
D
G
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Am
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
C
D
G
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue
Colors changing hue
Am
Morning fields of amber grey
Weathered faces lined in pain
D
I soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
G
Am
And now I understand
D
G
What you tried to say to me
Em
Am
How you suffered for your sanity
D
Em
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did
A
Am
not know how
D
Perhaps they'll listen now
G
Am
For they could not love you
D
But still your love was true
G
Em
Am
An d when no hope was left in sight
Cm
On that starry, starry night
C
G
You took your life,
E
as lovers often do
Em
But I could have told you,
Am
this world was never meant for
D
G
one as beautiful as you.
Starry, starry night,
Am
portraits hung in empty halls,
C
Frameless heads on nameless walls
D
With eyes that watch the world
and can't forget
G
Like the strangers that you've met
Am
The ragged men in ragged clothes
C
The silver thorn of bloody rose
D
Like crushed and broken
on the virgin snow
G
C
Am
Now I think I know
D
G
What you tried to say to me
Em
Am
How you suffered for your sanity
D
Em
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen,
A
they're not listening still
Am
D
Perhaps they never will.
