Vincent Don Mc Lean
Starry Starry
Gnight paint your pallete Amblue and grey
Look out on a Csummers day with D7eyes tha know the darkness in my Gsoul
Shadows on hills sketch the tress and Amdaffodils
Catch the breeze and the Cwinter chill In D7colors on the snowy linen Gland
chorus
C G And now I underAmstand D7 what you tried to Gsay to me Em
How you suffered for you Am7sanity D7 How you tried to set them Emfree
They would not listen the did A7not know howAm7 perD7haps they 'll listen Gnow
Starry starry nite flamings flowr's that brightly blaze
Swirling coulds in violet haze reflect in VIncents eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue,morning fields of amber graing
Weatherd faces lined inpain Are soothed beneath the artists loving hand
chorus
{listen noGw} For the could not Am7love you D7but still your love was Gtrue
Em And when no Am7hope was left in sight on that Cm6starry starry nite
You Gtook you life as F7lovers often E7do But I Am7could of told you Vinvent
This Cworld was never meant for one as D7beautiful as Gyou
Starry starry nite portraits hung in empty halls
frameless heads on nameless walls with i's that watch the world and cant forget
Like
the strangers that youve met,the ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn the bloody rose Lire crushed and broken on the virgin snow
chorous
C G And now I underAmstand D7 what you tried to Gsay to me Em
How you suffered for you Am7sanity D7 How you tried to set them Emfree
They would not listen theyre not A7listening still Am7 perD7haps they never will
