[Verse 1]
DStarry, starry nGight
Paint your palette Amblue and gray
Look out on a Csummer's day
With Deyes that know the darkness in my Gsoul
Shadows on the Ghills
Sketch the trees and the Amdaffodils
Catch the breeze and the Cwinter chills
In Dcolours on the snowy linen Gland
[Chorus]
EmNow I underAmstand D
What you tried to Gsay to me
How you suffered for your Amsanity D
How you tried to set them Gfree
They would not listen, they did Amnot know how
CPerhaps Dthey'll listen Gnow
[Verse 2]
DStarry, starry Gnight
Flaming flowers that Ambrightly blaze
Swirling clouds in Cviolet haze
ReDflect in Vincent's eyes of China Gblue
CoDlours changing Ghue
Morning fields of Amamber grain
Weathered faces Clined in pain
Are Dsoothed beneath the artist's loving Ghand
[Chorus]
EmOh, now I undeAmrstand D
What you tried to Gsay to me
How you suffered for your Amsanity D
How you tried to set them Gfree
They would not listen, they did Amnot know how
CPerhaps Dthey'll listen Gnow
[Bridge]
EmFor they could not Clove you, love Dyou
But still your love was Gtrue Em
And when no Amhope was left in sight on that Dstarry, starry night
You Bmtook your life as Dlovers often Gdo
But I could have Ctold you, Vincent
This Emworld was never Ammeant for one as Dbeautiful as Gyou
[Verse 3]
Oh, Dstarry, starry Gnight
Portraits hung in Amempty halls
Frameless heads on Cnameless walls
With Deyes that watch the world and can't Gforget
Like the Dstrangers that you've Gmet
The ragged men in Amragged clothes
The silver thorn of a Cbloody rose
Lie Dcrushed and broken on the virgin Gsnow
[Chorus]
EmNow I think I Amknow D
Oh, what you tried to Gsay to me
How you suffered for your Csanity
DHow you tried to set them Gfree
They would not listen, they're not Amlistening still
DPerhaps they never Gwill
