                    D                         Em
1.   Starry starry night, paint your palette blue and gray,
                   G
    look out on a summer's day
          A                                 D
    with eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
                   D                              Em
2. Shadows on the hills, sketch the trees and the daffodils,
                              G
    catch the breeze and the winter chills
        A                         D
    in colors on the snowy linen land.   
            Em    - A                     D
Now I understand       what you tried to say to me,
                           G      - A
how you suffered for your sanity,
                            D
how you tried to set them free.  
                            Em          - A
They would not listen they did not know how.
                        D
perhaps they'll listen now .  
                  D                           Em
3. Starry starry night, flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
                        G
    swirling clouds in violet haze
        A                                D
    reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
                    D                     Em
4. Colors changing hue, morning fields of amber grain,
                     G
    weathered faces lined in pain
         A                                   D
    are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand. + REFR.
 

                       Em       - A                           D  - A - Bm
    For they could not love you,     but still your love was true,
                 G                            Bb
    and when no hope was left inside on that starry starry night   
                   D                   B7
    you took your life as lovers often do,
                     Em
    but I could have told you Vincent,
          A                                A7           D - G - D
    this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.   
                  D                       Em
5. Starry starry night, portraits hung in empty halls,
                        G
    frameless heads on nameless walls
          A                                      D
    with eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
                                   D                    Em
6. Like the strangers that you've met, the ragged men in ragged clothes,
                          G
    the silver thorn of bloody rose
          A                                D
    lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.   
                Em   - A                      D
    Now I think I know        what you tried to say to me,
                              Em    - A                             D
    how you suffered for your sanity,   how you tried to set them free.
                                                 G        A               D
    They did not listen, they're not listening still, perhaps they never will.
