***** PJs Guitar Chords & Lyrics - http://www.guitarsongs.info ***** VINCENT MCLEAN, DON G Am 1. Starry, starry night, paint your pallet blue and grey C Look out on a summers day, D7 G With eyes that know the darkness in my soul G Am Shadows on the hills sketch the trees and the daffodils C And catch the breeze and winter chills D7 G C G In colors on the snowy linen land Chorus Am D7 G Em Now I understand, what you tried to say to me Am7 How you suffered for your sanity D7 Em How you tried to set them free A7 Am7 They would not listen, they did not know how D7 G Perhaps they'll listen now Starry, starry night, flaming flowers that brightly blaze Swirling colors of violet haze Reflect in Vincents eyes of china blue Colors changing hue, morning fields of amber grain Weathered faces lined in pain Are soothed beneath the artists loving hand Chorus Am7 D7 G For they could not love you, but still your love was true Em Am7 Cm6 And when no hope was left in sight on that starry, starry night G F7 E7 You took your life as lovers often do Am7 I could have told you Vincent, C D7 G This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you Starry, starry night, portraits hung in empty halls Frameless heads on nameless walls With eyes that watch the world and can't forget Like the stranger that you've met, the ragged man in ragged clothes The silver thorn of bloody rose Lies crushed and broken on the virgin snow Now I think I know, what you try to say to me How you suffered for your sanity How you tried to set them free They would not listen, they're not listening still Perhaps they never will ***************************************************************************************** The above is solely MY INTERPRETATION of this great song, in a format aimed at learning guitarists.
