 Verse:
   D
 Goodbye Norma Jean
               G
 Though I never knew you at all
                       D
 You had the grace to hold yourself
                           G
 While those around you crawled
                           D
 They crawled out of the woodwork
            G
 And they whispered into your brain
                       D
 They set you on the treadmill
                                G
 And they made you change your name
 Chorus:
          A
 And it seems to me you lived your life
          D            A
 Like a candle in the wind
         D
 Never knowing who to cling to
            A
 When the rain set in
         G    
 And I would have liked to have known you
     Bm
 But I was just a kid 
                         A
 Your candle burned out long before
       G                D        G
 Your legend ever did
 Verse:
  D
 Loneliness was tough
                  G
 The toughest role you ever played
                      D
 Hollywood created a superstar
                              G
 And pain was the price you paid
                D
 Even when you died
          G
 Oh the press still hounded you
                 D
 All the papers had to say
                                    G
 Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
 Chorus:
          A
 And it seems to me you lived your life
          D            A
 Like a candle in the wind
         D
 Never knowing who to cling to
            A
 When the rain set in
         G    
 And I would have liked to have known you
     Bm
 But I was just a kid 
                         A
 Your candle burned out long before
       G                D        G        D        G
 Your legend ever did

 Goodbye Norma Jean
                          G
 From the young man in the 22nd row
                              D
 Who sees you as something more than sexual
                   G
 More than just our Marilyn Monroe
 Chorus:
          A
 And it seems to me you lived your life
          D            A
 Like a candle in the wind

 Your legend ever did
G                   D
 Your legend ever did
