CANDLE IN THE WIND CHORDS

[Start]

[Verse]
B A E B7
    
E                  
Goodbye Norma Jeane
               A              
Though I never knew you at all
                     E            
You had the grace to hold yourself
                       A       D
While those around you crawled 
A                         E       
 They crawled out of the woodwork
                   A              
And they whispered into your brain
                    E        
They set you on the treadmill
         E                        
And they made you change your name
A      B                              
And it seems to me you lived your life
       E             A   
Like a candle in the wind
E                            
Never knowing who to cling to
         B          
When the rain set in
      A                         
And I would've liked to know you


[Chorus]
          C#m       
But I was just a kid
                       B          
Your candle burned out long before
     A              
Your legend ever did

[Verse]
E                   
Loneliness was tough
                  A              
The toughest role you ever played
                    E        
Hollywood created a superstar
                       A        Amaj7
And pain was the price you paid     
              E   
Even when you died
       A                      
Oh the press still hounded you
                   E     
All the papers had to say
                              A       
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
    D    B                              
And  it seems to me you lived your life
       E             A   
Like a candle in the wind
E                            
Never knowing who to cling to
         B          
When the rain set in
      A                         
And I would've liked to know you


[Chorus]
          C#m       
But I was just a kid
                       B          
Your candle burned out long before
     A              
Your legend ever did


[Verse]
E B A E B7
     
E                  
Goodbye Norma Jeane
               A              
Though I never knew you at all
                     E            
You had the grace to hold yourself
                       A      
While those around you crawled
E                  
Goodbye Norma Jeane
                          A                
From the young man in the twenty second row
                               E          
Who sees you as something more than sexual
                   A             
More than just our Marilyn Monroe


[Chorus]
       B                              
And it seems to me you lived your life
       E      E7     A   
Like a candle in the wind
E                            
Never knowing who to cling to
         B          
When the rain set in
      A                         
And I would've liked to know you
          C#m       
But I was just a kid
                       B    Bsus4 
Your candle burned out long before
A                    E
Your legend ever did 
A                      C#m        
Your candle burned out long before
     C#m            
Your legend ever did
