Candle In The Wind chords by Ed Sheeran

Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro: C  G6  C

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

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

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

G      F     C    G
Haaaaa haaaaa

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

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

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

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

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