[Verse]
E A
Goodbye Norma Jean, though I never knew you at all
E A
You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled
E A
They crawled out of the woodwork and they whispered into your brain
E A
They sent you on a treadmill and they made you change your name

[Chorus]
B B7
And it seems to me you lived your life
E A
Like a candle in the wind
E B
Never knowing who to cling to when the rain set in
A C#m
And I would have liked to've known you but I was just a kid
B A A G#m F#m E B A G#m
Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did
F#m E

[Verse]
E A
Loneliness was tough, the toughest role you ever played
E A
Hollywood created a superstar and pain was the price you paid
E A
And even when you died, oh, the press still hounded you
E A
All the papers had to say was that Marilyn was found in the nude

[Chorus]
B B7
And it seems to me you lived your life
E A
Like a candle in the wind
E B
Never knowing who to cling to when the rain set in
A C#m
And I would have liked to've known you but I was just a kid
B A A G#m F#m E B A G#m
Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did
F#m E

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