[E] [A]
[B] You lived your life [E] like a candle in the [A] wind
[E] Never knowing who to cling to when [B] the rain set in
And [A] I would've liked to have known you as [C#m] just a kid
Your candle burned [B] out long before [A] your legend ever did
[E] [B]
[E] Loneliness was tough, the [A] toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created [E] a superstar and fame was the [A] price you paid
And even when [E] you died, all [A] the press still hounded you
All the papers [E] had to say was that Marilyn [A] was found in the nude
[B] And it seems to me, you lived your life [E] like a candle [A] in the wind
[E] Never knowing who to cling to [B] when the rain set in
And I [A] would've liked to have known you as just [C#m] a kid
Your candle burned [B] out long before [A] your legend ever did
[E]
[B] [E] Goodbye Norma Jean
Oh [A] I never knew you would hardly have the grace [G#m] to hold yourself
[E] Or those around [A] you crawl
[E] Goodbye Norma Jean
From a young man [A] in the 22nd row
Who sees you [E] as something more than sexual
More than just our [A] Marilyn Monroe
