tarry, starry [F] night [
Fsus
F ]
Paint your palette [Gm] blue and grey
Look out on a [Bb] summer's day
With [C7] eyes that know the darkness
in my [F] soul, shadows on the hills [
Fsus
F ]
Sketch the trees and the [Gm] daffodils
Catch the breeze and the [Bb] winter chills
In [C7] colors on the snowy linen [
F] land [
Bb
F ]
Now I under[Gm]stand [
C7] what you tried to [
F] say to me
[Dm] how you suffered for your [
Gm7] sanity
[C7] how you tried to set them [
Dm] free
They would not listen they did [G7] not know how
[Gm7] per[
C7]haps they'll listen [
F] now
Starry, starry [F] night [
Fsus
F ]
Flaming flowers that [Gm] brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in [Bb] violet haze
re[C7]flect in Vincent's eyes of china [
F] blue
Colors changing [F] hue [
Fsus
F ]
Morning fields of [Gm] amber grain
Weathered faces [Bb] lined in pain
are [C7] soothed beneath the artists's loving [
F] hand
Now I under[Gm]stand [
C7] what you tried to [
F] say to me
[Dm] and how you suffered for your [
Gm7] sanity
[C7] and how you tried to set them [
Dm] free
They would not listen they did [G7] not know how
[Gm7] per[
C7]haps they'll listen [
F] now
For they could not [Gm7] love you
[C7] but still your love was [
F] true [
Eb
D ]
And when no [Gm7] hope was left in sight
on that [Bbm] starry, starry night
You [F] took your life as [
Eb7] lovers often [
D7] do
But [Gm7] I could have told you, Vincent
[Bb] This world was never meant for one
as [C7] beautiful as [
F] you [
Fsus
F ]
Starry, starry [F] night [
Fsus
F ]
Portraits hung in [Gm] empty halls
Frameless heads on [Bb] nameless walls
With [C7] eyes that watch the world and can't for[
F]get
Like the strangers that you've [F] met [
Fsus
F ]
The ragged men in [Gm] ragged clothes
The silver thorn of [Bb] bloody rose
lie [C7] crushed and broken on the virgin [
F] snow
Now I think I [Gm] know
[C7] what you tried to [
F] say to me
[Dm] how you suffered for your [
Gm7] sanity
[C7] how you tried to set them [
Dm] free
They would not listen they're not [G7] listening still
[Gm7] per[
C7]haps they never [
F] will
