[Intro]
C x4
[Verse 1]
C Goodbye Norma Jeane 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
[Chorus]
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 And I would've 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
[Interlude]
C x6
[Verse 2]
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 (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
[Chorus]
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 And I would've 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
[Interlude]
C x6
[Verse 3]
C Goodbye Norma Jeane 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 Jeane F From the young man in the 22nd row C Who sees you as something more than sexual F More than just our Marilyn Monroe
[Chorus]
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 And I would've 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 Your candle burned out long before F C* Your legend ever did
