Title: Vincent
Artist/band: Josh Groban
Source of Chords: Charlie Edsel Valera 
[Verse 1]
Starry starry Gnight, paint your palette Amblue and grey
Look out on a Csummer's day with D7eyes that know the darkness in my Gsoul
Shadows on hills sketch the trees and Amdaffodils
Catch the breeze and the Cwinter chill in D7colors on the snowy linen Gland
C   G
[Chorus]
And now I understAmand  D7what you tried to Gsay to meEm  
How you suffered for your Am7sanity     D7How you tried to set them Emfree
They would not listen, they did A7not know howAm7,  perD7haps they'll listen Gnow
[Verse 2]
Starry starry niGght, flaming flowers that Ambrightly blaze
Swirling clouds Cin violet haze rD7eflect in Vincent's eyes of china Gblue
Colors changing hue, morning fields of Amamber grain
Weathered faces lined in Cpain are soothed D7beneath the artist's loviGng hand
C   G
[Chorus]
(listen noGw)  For the could not Am7love you  D7but still, your love was Gtrue
And when no Emhope was left iAm7n sight on that stCm6arry, starry night
You Gtook your life as F7lovers often E7do but I could have Am7told you Vincent
This Cworld was never meant for one as bD7eautiful as yGou
[Verse 3]
Starry starry nigGht, portraits hung in emAmpty halls
Frameless heads on naCmeless walls with eyD7es that 
watch the world and can't forgGet
Like the strangers that you've met, the ragged men in rAmagged clothes
The silver thorn, the bloCody rose, lies cD7rushed and broken on the vGirgin snow
C   G
[Chorus]
And now I understaAmnd   D7what you tried to say Gto meEm  
How you suffered for your Am7sanity     D7How you tried to set them Emfree
They would not listen, they're not  A7listening stilAm7l,   D7perhaps

The silver thorn, the bloody rose, lies crushed and broken on the virgin snow
