Vincent Starry Starry Night

G Gsus4 G Am C D7 G Gsus4 G G Gsus4 G Starry, starry night, Am Paint your palette blue and grey, C Look out on a summer’s day, D7 G With eyes that know the darkness in my soul Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Shadows on the hills Am Sketch the trees and the daffodils C Catch the breeze and the winter chills D7 G Gsus4 G In colours on the snowy linen land Am D Now I understand G G/F# Em What you tried to say to me Am D7 And how you suffered for your sanity Em And how you tried to set them free They would not listen Am D7 They did not know how G Gsus4 G Perhaps they’ll listen now G Gsus4 G Starry, starry night, Am C D7 G Am D Starry, starry night G G/F# Em Am D7 G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Am C D7 G G/F# Em Am D7 G G/F# Em Am D7 G Gsus4 G Am D Now I think I know G G/F# Em What you tried to say to me Am D7 And how you suffered for your sanity Em How you tried to set them free They would not listen, Am D7 They’re not listening still G Gsus4 G Perhaps they never will. Am D7 For they could not love you, G G7 But still your love was true Am And when no hope was left in sight Cm On that starry, starry night G Oh, you took your life, F E7 As lovers often do Am But I could’ve told you, Vincent, C This world was never meant for D7 G Gsus4 G One as beautiful as you
