Verse 1
Am
Paint your palette blue and gray
C
Look out on a summer's day
D
G
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Am
Sketch the trees and daffodils
C
Catch the breeze and winter chills
D
G
In colors on the snowy linen land
Chorus 1
Am
D
Now I understand
G
What you tried to say to me
Em
Am
D
How you suffered for your sanity
Em
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen,
A
D
they did not know how
G
Perhaps they'll listen now
Verse 2
Am
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
C
Swirling clouds in violet haze
D
G
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Am
Morning fields of amber grain
C
Weathered faces lined in pain
D
G
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Chorus 2
Am
D
Oh, now I understand
G

Bridge 1
Am
D
For they could not love you, love you
G
But still your love was true
Em
Am
And when no hope was left in sight
Cm
On that starry, starry night
G
E
You took your life as lovers often do
Am
But I could have told you, Vincent
C
This world was never meant
D
G
For one as beautiful as you, ohh
Verse 3
Am
Portraits hung in empty halls
C
Frameless heads on nameless walls
D
With eyes that watch the world
Like the strangers that you've met
Am
The ragged men in ragged clothes
C
A silver thorn of a bloody rose
D
G
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Chorus 3
D
G
Oh, what you tried to say to me
Em
Am
D
How you suffered for your sanity
Em
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen,
A
D
they're not listening still
G
Perhaps they never will
