D Goodbye Norma Jean G Though I never knew you at all D You had the grace to hold yourself G While those around you crawled D They crawled out of the woodwork G And they whispered into your brain D They set you on the treadmill G * And they made you change your name A A7 And it seems to me you lived your life D G Like a candle in the wind D Never knowing who to cling to A When the rain set in G And I would have liked to have known you Bm But I was just a kid A Your candle burned out long before G D (G D A G D A) Your legend ever did D Loneliness was tough G The toughest role you ever played D Hollywood created a superstar G And pain was the price you paid D Even when you died G Oh the press still hounded you D All the papers had to say G Was that Marilyn was found in the nude A A7 And it seems to me you lived your life D G Like a candle in the wind D Never knowing who to cling to A When the rain set in G And I would have liked to have known you Bm But I was just a kid A Your candle burned out long before G D (G D A G D A) Your legend ever did D Goodbye Norma Jean G Though I never knew you at all D You had the grace to hold yourself G While those around you crawled D Goodbye Norma Jean G From the young man in the 22nd row D Who sees you as something more than sexual G More than just our Marilyn Monroe A A7 And it seems to me you lived your life D G Like a candle in the wind D Never knowing who to cling to A When the rain set in G And I would have liked to have known you Bm But I was just a kid A Your candle burned out long before G D (G D) Your legend ever did D A Your candle burned out long before G D (G D) Your legend ever did
