Vincent

E
Starry, starry night
F#m
Paint your palette blue and grey
                A
Look out on a summer's day
        B                   E
With eyes that know the darkness of my soul
A                E
Shadows on the hill
                         F#m
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
                          A
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
     B
In colors on the snowy linen land

E       F#m      B                   E        B C#m
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
                             F#m B
How you suffered for your sanity
                          C#m
How you tried to set them free
                               F#m          A
They did not listen, they did not know how
B                          E
Perhaps they'll listen now

E
Starry, starry night
                 F#m
Flaming flowers brightly blaze
                       A
Swirling clouds in violet haze
B                             E
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
           A              E
And the colors changing hue
          F#m
Morning fields of amber grain
                 A
Weathered faces lined in pain
     B                                  E
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

E       F#m      B                   E        B C#m
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
                             F#m B
How you suffered for your sanity
                          C#m
How you tried to set them free
                               F#m          A
They did not listen, they did not know how
B                          E
Perhaps they'll listen now

                    F#m
For they could not love you
 B                  E     B C#m
Still your love was true
             A
How when no hope was left in sight
Am
On that starry, starry night
     E                                 C#m
You took your life, as lovers often do
       F#m
But I could have told you, Vincent
A                                                    E
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

  E
Starry, starry night
                     F#m
Portraits hung in empty halls
                    D          A B
Frameless head on nameless walls
                                           E    A
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
             A                  E
Like the strangers that you've met
                          F#m
Oh the ragged men in the ragged clothes
                           F#m A
And the silver thorn of bloody rose
     E            B                     E
Lies crushed and broken on the virgin snow

E       F#m      B                   E        B C#m
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
                             F#m B
How you suffered for your sanity
                          C#m
How you tried to set them free
                               F#m          A
They did not listen, they did not know how
B                          E
Perhaps they'll listen now
