Chords for VINCENT | STARRY STARRY NIGHT | HD with lyrics | DON McLEAN | cover by Chris Landmark

[N] _ _ [F#] Starry, starry night, _ _ _ _ _ _ paint your [G#] palette blue and grey _
Look _ _ out on a [B] summer's day, _ with ice [C#] and no the darkness in my [F#] soul
_ Shadows on the _ hills, _ _ _ _ _ sketch the [G#] trees and the _ _ daffodils
_ _ Catch the breeze and the wind [B] that chills, in [C#] colours on the _ snowy linen [F#] _
lair _ _ _ _ _ _
Now I [G#m] understand, _ _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ what you tried [F#] to say to me
[D#m] _ How you suffered for [G#m] your sanity, _ _
_ [C#] how you tried to set them [D#m] free
They would not listen, [G#] they did not know how, _ _ [G#m] _ _
perhaps they listen [F#] _ _ now _
_ _ _ _ _ Starry, starry night, _ _ _ _ _ _ flaming [G#] flowers that brightly _ _ blaze
_ _ Swirling [B]
clouds in violet _ haze, reflect [C#] in Vincent's eyes [F#] of China blue
_ Colours changing _ hue, _ _ _ _ _ _ morning fields [G#m] of amber grey _ _ _
_ Weathered faces [B] lined in pain, [C#] are soothed beneath the [F#] artist's loving _ hair
Now I [G#m] understand, _ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ what you tried [F#] to say to [A#m] _ me
[D#m] How you suffered for [G#m] your sanity, _ _ _
[C#] _ how you tried to set [D#m] them free
They would not listen, they [G#] did not know how, _ _ [G#m] _ _ [C#] perhaps they listen [F#] now
_ For they could not [G#] love you, _ _ _
[C#] _ still your love [F#] was true
_ _ [D#m] _ _ And when no [G#m] hope was left inside, [Bm] on that starry, starry night
[F#] You took your [E] life as lovers often [D#]
do
_ _ _ But [G#m] I could have told you [B] Vincent, _ this world was [G#m] never meant [F#] for one [C#] as _ beautiful _ [F#] _ as you _
_ _ _ _ Starry, starry night, _ _ _ _ _ _ portraits hung [G#m] in empty _ halls
_ _ _ _ Frameless heads on [B] nameless walls, with [C#] eyes that watch the world and can't [F#] forget
Like the strangest statue _ men, _ _ _ _ _ _ ragged men [G#m] in ragged _ _ clothes _ _
Silver thorn of bloody _ [B]
rose, like [C#] crushed and broken from the virgin [F#] snow
_ _ Now I think I [G#m] know, _ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ what you tried to [F#] say to me
[D#m] _ How you suffered [G#m] for your sanity, _ _ _
[C#] how you tried to set them [D#m] free
They would not listen, [G#] they not miss me still, _ _ [G#m] _ _ [C#] perhaps they never _ will _ _
