Chords for Don McLean Vincent Live Performance.

It's a ballad and it was a _ big song about ten years ago.
It's just guitar and voice. _
Starry, starry night _
[G] _ _ [G] _ _ Paint your [A] palette blue and [F#] grey _ _
_ [Am] _ Look [C] out on a summer's day
_ [D] With eyes that know the darkness in my [G] soul
_ Shadows on the hill _
_ _ _ _ _
Sketch the [E] trees and the daffodil
_ _ _ [Am] _ _
Catch the breeze [C] and the winter chills
_ [D] In colours on the snowy [G] linen land
_ [C] _ _
_ [G] _ _ Now I [Am] understand
_ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ What you [G] tried to say to me
_ [E] _ _
[Em] How you [Am] suffered for your sanity
_ _ _ [D] _ _
How you tried [Em] to set them free
They would not listen, [A] they did not know how
_ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ [D] Perhaps they'll [G] listen now
_ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [Em] Starry, starry [G] night
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ Flaming [E] flowers that brightly blaze
_ _ [Am] _ _
Swirling [C] clouds in violet _ haze
_ [D] Reflect in Vincent's eyes of [G] China blue
_ _ Colours changing hue _ _ _ _ _
_ Morning [E] fields of amber grain
_ _ [Am] _ _
_ Weathered [C] faces lined in pain
Are [D] _
soothed beneath the artist's loving [G] hand
_ Now I [Am] understand
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ What you [G] tried to say to me
[E] _ _ _
[Em] How you suffered [Am] for your sanity
_ _ _ [D] _ _
[Am] How you tried [Em] to set them free
They would not listen, [A] they did not [A] know how
_ [Am] _ _ _
[Dm] Perhaps they'll [G] listen now
_ For they could [Am] not love you
_ [D] _ _
Still your [G] love was true
_ _ _ _ [Em] _
And when [Am] no hope was left in sight
[Cm] On that starry, starry night
[G] You took your life [F] as lovers [E] often do _ _ _
[Am] But I could have told you, Vincent
_ [C] _ This world was never meant for [D] one as beautiful [G] as you _ _
_ _ _ _ _
Starry, starry night _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Portraits hung [E] in empty halls _
[Am] _ _ _ Frameless heads [C] on nameless walls
With [D] eyes that watch the world and can't [G] forget
_ Like the strangers that you've [G] met _
_ _ _ _ The ragged [E] men in ragged clothes
_ _ [Am] _ _
A silver [C] thorn, a bloody _ rose
_ [D] Lie crushed and broken on the virgin [G] snow
_ _ Now I [E] think I know
[Am] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ What you [G] tried to say to me
[E] _ _
_ [Em] _ How you [Am] suffered for your sanity _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ How you tried to set them [Em] free
They would not listen, [A] they're not listening still _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ [D] Perhaps they never [G] _ will _ _
