Julio Iglesias - Vincent, (Starry Starry Night) 1990 - Julio Iglesias covered this song on his album Starry Night and it was later included on the compilation album My Life: The Greatest Hits (1998) Capo III [Verse 1]

Starry starry ^Dnight, paint your palette ^Emblue and gray, look out on a ^Gsummer's day with ^Aeyes that know the darkness in my ^Dsoul.

[Verse 2]

Shadows on the ^Dhills, sketch the trees and the ^Emdaffodils, catch the breeze and the ^Gwinter chills in ^Acolors on the snowy linen ^Dland.

[Chorus]

Now I unders^Emtand ^A what you tried to ^Dsay to me, how you suffered for your ^Gsanity, ^A how you tried to set them ^Dfree. They would not listen they did ^Emnot know how. ^A perhaps they'll listen ^Dnow .

[Verse 3]

Starry starry ^Dnight, flaming flowers that ^Embrightly blaze, swirling clouds in ^Gviolet haze re^Aflect in Vincent's eyes of china ^Dblue.

[Verse 4]

Colors changing ^Dhue, morning fields of ^Emamber grain, weathered faces ^Glined in pain are ^Asoothed beneath the artist's loving ^Dhand.

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

For they could not ^Emlove you, ^A but still your love was ^Dtrue,^A ^Bm and when no ^Ghope was left inside on that ^A#starry starry night you took your ^Dlife as lovers often^B7 do, but I could have ^Emtold you Vincent, this ^Aworld was never meant for one as ^A7beautiful as ^Dyou. ^G ^D

[Verse 5]

Starry starry ^Dnight, portraits hung in ^Emempty halls, frameless heads on ^Gnameless walls with ^Aeyes that watch the world and can't ^Dforget.

[Verse 6]

Like the strangers that you've ^Dmet, the ragged men in ^Emragged clothes, the silver thorn of ^Gbloody rose lie ^Acrushed and broken on the virgin ^Dsnow.

[Outro]

Now I think I ^Emknow ^A what you tried to ^Dsay to me, how you suffered for your ^Emsanity, ^A how you tried to set them ^Dfree. They did not listen, they're not listening ^Gstill, per^Ahaps they never^D will.
