Vincent chords by Ellie Goulding

Chords with lyrics

INTRO: BB

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

CHORUS:
        C# minorC#m F#F#
Now I understand
         BB  BMaj7Bmaj7 AbmAbm
What you tried to say to me
                 C# minorC#m
And how you suffered for your sanity
F#F#               AbmAbm
And how you tried to set them free
               C#C#      C# minorC#m
They would not listen, they did not know how
  #        BB   E MajorE BB
Perhaps they'll listen now

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

CHORUS:
        C# minorC#m F#F#
Now I understand
         BB  BMaj7Bmaj7 AbmAbm
What you tried to say to me
                 C# minorC#m
And how you suffered for your sanity
F#F#               AbmAbm
And how you tried to set them free
               C#C#      C# minorC#m
They would not listen, they did not know how
  #        BB   E MajorE BB
Perhaps they'll listen now


BRIDGE:
          C# minorC#m  F#F#
For they could not love you
            BB BMaj7Bmaj7 AbmAbm
But still your love was true
       C# minorC#m
And when no hope was left in sight
      E MajorE
On that starry, starry night
BB          BMaj7Bmaj7    AbmAbm
You took your life, as lovers often do
        C# minorC#m
But I could've told you, Vincent
 E MajorE                F#F#       BB E MajorE BB
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

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

OUTRO:
BB      C# minorC#m  F#F#
Now I think I know
F#F#         BB  BMaj7Bmaj7 AbmAbm
What you tried to say to me
                C# minorC#m
And how you suffered for your sanity
F#F#               AbmAbm
And how you tried to set them free
                  C#C#      C# minorC#m
They would not listen, they're not listening still
 C# minorC#m         BB BMaj7Bmaj7 AbmAbm C# minorC#m F#F# BB E MajorE BB
Perhaps they never will
