Guys, I fixed up version 1 of this tab because i found no less then 10 spelling misstakes
and it annoyed me so much that I made a new version.
Verse 1:
G
Starry Starry night
Am
paint your pallet blue and gray
C D7 G
Look out on a summer's day with eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Am
Shadows on hills, sketch the trees and daffodils
C D7 G - C - G
Catch the breeze and the winter chills In colours on the snowy linnen land
Chorus:
Am D7 G Em
And now I understand what you tried to say to me
Am7 D7 Em
How you suffered for your sanity How you tried to set them free
A7 Am7 - D7 G
They would not listen the did not know how perhaps they'll listen now
Verse 2:
G
Starry Starry night
Am
flamings flowers that brightly blaze
C D7 G
Swirling clouds in violet haze reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue

Colours changing hue, morning fields of amber grain

Weathered faces lined in pain, are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
Verse 3:
G
Starry Starry night
Am
portraits hung in empty halls
C D7 G
frameless heads on nameless walls with eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Am
Like the strangers that you've met, the ragged men in ragged clothes
C D7 G - C - G
The silver thorn of bloody rose Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Final Chorus:
Am D7 G Em
And now I think I know what you tried to say to me

How you suffered for your sanity How you tried to set them free
