C  G  Am  E  F  C  G  C

C                G
Starry, starry night
       Am            E
Paint your palette blue and gray
         F                C
Look out on a summer's day
            G              C
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

C                G
Shadows on the hills
       Am             E
Sketch the trees and daffodils
         F                   C
Catch the breeze and winter chills
             G                  C
In colors on the snowy linen land

C                G
Now I understand
      Am               E
What you tried to say to me
          F                   C
And how you suffered for your sanity
          G                  C
And how you tried to set them free

C                G
They would not listen
      Am             E
They did not know how
            F                  C
Perhaps they'll listen now
