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
