Candle In The Wind Chords by Ed Sheeran

[Start]

[Verse]
E                       
■ Ooh Goodbye Norma Jean
               A              
Though I never knew you at all
                     E            
You had the grace to hold yourself
                       Esus4   A
While those around you crawled ■
                        E       
They crawled out of the woodwork
         A                        
And they whispered into your brain
                    E        
They set you on the treadmill
                              A   
And they made you change your name


[Chorus]
       E     Bsus4 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
         E          
When the rain set in
A                              Bsus4    
And I would have liked to have known you
          Dbm7      
But I was just a kid
                       Bsus4 B     
Your candle burned out long  before
     A           E   Bsus4
Your legend ever did ■    


[Verse]
E B E                   
■ ■ Loneliness was tough
             A                   
The toughest role you ever played
                    E        
Hollywood created a superstar
                           A   
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


[Chorus]
       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                              B        
And I would have liked to have known you
          Dbm    Dbm7
But I was just a kid 
                       B          
Your candle burned out long before
     A           E  
Your legend ever did
B A E B

[Verse]
E                 
Goodbye Norma Jean
         A                    
Though I never knew you at all
                     E    E7      
You had the grace to hold yourself
                       A      
While those around you crawled


[Chorus]
E                 
Goodbye Norma Jean
                          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
       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                          Bsus4    
And I would have liked to have known you
          Dbm7      
But I was just a kid
                       B          
Your candle burned out long before
A                   
Your legend ever did
E                      B          
Your candle burned out long before
A                    E
Your legend ever did ■
