Candle In The Wind Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

EGoodbye Norma Jean, though I neveAr knew you at all

You had the grace to holdE yourself while those around you crawledA

They crawled out of the wEoodwork and they whisperedA into your brain

They sent you on a treadEmill and they made you change your name A

Chorus

BAnd it seems to me you lived your liB7fe

Like a cEandle in the windA

Never knEowing who to cling to when the rBain set in

And I would Ahave liked to've known you but I was juC♯mst a kid

Your candle burned out loBng before your lAegend ever did E

Other verses:

Loneliness was tough, the toughest role you ever played

Hollywood created a superstar and pain was the price you paid

And 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, though I never knew you at all

You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled

Goodbye Norma Jean, from a young man in the twenty second row

Who sees you as something more than sexual, more than just our Marilyn Monroe
