Candle in the Wind

	 
[Intro]
[Estrofe]
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 
[Refrão]
       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 
Your legend ever did 
[Estrofe]
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  
  
All the papers had to say 
         D                        G 
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude 
[Refrão]
       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 
Your legend ever did

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
[Refrão]
