Starry, starry night 
                    Am 
Paint your palette blue and gray 
                 C 
Look out on a summer's day 
      D7                                G 
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 
     D7                       G 
In colors on the snowy linen land 

        Am        D7 
Now I understand 
                   G         Em7 
What you tried to say to me 
                               Am    D7 
And how you suffered for your sanity 
                               Em7 
And how you tried to set them free 
                                 A7           Am 
They would not listen, they did not know how 
 D7                    G 
Perhaps they'll listen now 

   G 
Starry, starry night 
                      Am 
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze 
                     C 
Swirling clouds in violet haze 
 D7                                G 
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue 


Colors changing hue 
                  Am 
Morning fields of amber grain 
                  C 
Weathered faces lined in pain 
    D7                                  G 
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand 

         Am      D7 
Now I understand 
                    G       Em7 
What you tried to say to me 
                                 Am        D7  
And how you suffered for your sanity 
                                     Em7 
And how you tried to set them free    

                                 A7            Am 
They would not listen, they did not know how 
 D7                     G 
Perhaps they'll listen now 

                Am         D7 
For they could not love you 
                           G 
But still your love was true 
             Am  
And when no hope was left in sight 
           Cm 
On that starry, starry night 

      G                  Em7        A7 
You took your life, as lovers often do 
                 Am 
But I could've told you Vincent 
     C                   
This world was never meant for 
         D7          G 
One as beautiful as you 

  G 
Starry, starry night 
                     Am 
Portraits hung in empty halls 
                       C 
Frame-less heads on nameless walls 
     D7                                    G 
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget 


Like the strangers that you've met 
     Am       
The ragged men in ragged clothes 
                       C 
The silver thorn of bloody rose 
      D7                              G 
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow 

               Am   D7 
Now I think  I know 
                   G         Em7 
What you tried to say to me 
                                  Am  D7 
And how you suffered for your sanity 
                                    Em7 
And how you tried to set them free 

                                               A7  Am 
They would not listen, they're not listening still 
 D7                 G 
Perhaps they never will
