Ellie Goulding - Vincent Chords

[Verse 1]
                 B
Starry, starry night
                   C#m
Paint your palette blue and grey
                E
Look out on a summer's day
     F#                                  B
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
E              B       E
Shadows on the hills
B                         C#m
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
C#m                       E
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
    F#                         B  E B
In colors on the snowy linen land

[Chorus]
       C#m
Now I understand
F#                 B     G#m
What you tried to say to me
G#m                           C#m
And how you suffered for your sanity
F#                          G#m
How you tried to set them free
                                 C#m
They would not listen, they did not know how
   B                   E    B
Perhaps they'll listen now

[Verse 2]
                B   E
Starry, starry night
B                 C#m
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
C#m                    E
Swirling clouds in a violet haze
F#                                   B
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
E                 B  E B
Colors changing hue
B                  C#m
Morning fields of amber grain
C#m               E
Weathered faces lined in pain
     F#                           B
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

[Chorus]
       C#m
Now I understand
F#                 B  F#     G#m
What you tried to say to me
G#m                           C#m
And how you suffered for your sanity
F#                          G#m
How you tried to set them free
                                 C#m
They would not listen, they did not know how
   B                    B
Perhaps they'll listen now

[Bridge]
                    C#m
For they could not love you
     F#                  B    G#m
But still your love was true
G#m          C#m
And when no hope was left in sight
          E
On that starry, starry night
B              F#                    G#m
You took your life, as lovers often do
                C#m
But I could've told you, Vincent
      E                            F#    B          B   E B
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

[Verse 3]
B                   E B
Starry, starry night
B                  C#m
Portraits hung in empty halls
C#m                  E
Frameless heads on nameless walls
F#                                          B
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
          E                    B    E B
Like the strangers that you've met
B                   C#m
The ragged men in ragged clothes
C#m                       E
The silver thorn on the bloody rose
      F#                         B     E   B
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

[Outro]
B              C#m
Now I think I know
                   B  F# G#m
What you tried to say to me
G#m                            C#m
And how you suffered for your sanity
C#m                             G#m
And how you tried to set them free
                                    C#m
They would not listen, they're not listening still
                    B   F#  G#m
Perhaps they never will

[Outro]
C#m F# B E
