Candle In The Wind chords

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
 
         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

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

         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

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

         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

Your candle burned out long before
  F                  C
