Chords with lyrics

Intro: C majorC G6G6 C majorC

C majorC
Goodbye, Norma Jean
       FF
Though I never knew you at all
           C majorC
You had the grace to hold yourself
             FF
While those around you crawled

             C majorC
They crawled out of the woodwork
         FF
And they whispered into your brain
           C majorC
They set you on the treadmill
                FF
And they made you change your name

   G+G
And it seems to me you lived your life
    C majorC        FF
Like a candle in the wind
    C majorC
Never knowing who to cling to
     G+G
When the rain set in
  FF              G+G
And I would have liked to have known you
      A minorAm
But I was just a kid
            G+G
Your candle burned out long before
   FF        C majorC
Your 🏷Legend ever did

G+G   FF   C majorC  G+G
Haaaaa haaaaa

C majorC
Loneliness was tough
         FF
The toughest role you ever played
          C majorC
Hollywood created a superstar
              FF
And pain was the price you paid
       C majorC
Even when you died
         FF
Oh, the press still hounded you
        C majorC
All the papers had to say
            FF
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude

  G+G
And it seems to me you lived your life
    C majorC        FF
Like a candle in the wind
    C majorC
Never knowing who to cling to
     G+G
When the rain set in
  FF              G+G
And I would have liked to have known you
      A minorAm
But I was just a kid
            G+G
Your candle burned out long before
   FF        C majorC
Your 🏷Legend ever did

C majorC
Goodbye, Norma Jean
       FF
Though I never knew you at all
           C majorC
You had the grace to hold yourself
             FF
While those around you crawled

C majorC
Goodbye Norma Jean
              FF
From the young man in the twenty second row
              C majorC
Who sees you as something more than sexual
            FF
More than just our Marilyn Monroe

G+G
And it seems to me you lived your life
    C majorC        FF
Like a candle in the wind
    C majorC
Never knowing who to cling to
     G+G
When the rain set in
  FF              G+G
And I would have liked to have known you
      A minorAm
But I was just a kid
            G+G
Your candle burned out long before
   FF        C majorC
