SONG: Candle In The Wind - Elton John/Bernie Taupin
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E
Goodbye Norma Jean
A
Though I never knew you at all
E/G#
You had the grace to hold yourself
A Asus4
While those around you crawled
A E
They crawled out of the woodwork
A
And they whispered into your brain
E/G#
They set you on the treadmill
A Asus4 A
And they made you change your name
B
And it seems to me you lived your life
E A
Like a candle in the wind
E Esus4
Never knowing who to cling to
E B Bsus4
When the rain set in
A
And I would have liked to have known you
C#m
But I was just a kid
B
Your candle burned out long before
A E
Your legend ever did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
