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