(E major) Goodbye, Norma Jeane
Though I never (A major) knew you at all

Chorus 1
And it (B major) seems to me you lived your life
Like a (E major) candle in the wind (A major)
Never (E major) knowing who to cling to
When the rain (B major) set in
And I would've (A major) liked to know you
But I was just (C sharp minor) a kid
Your candle burned out (B major) long before
Your (A major) legend ever did
Interlude 1
(E major) (B major) (A major)
(E major) (B major)
Verse 2
(E major) Loneliness was tough
The toughest role (A major) you ever played
Hollywood a created a superstar (E major)
And pain was the price you paid (A major)
Even when you (E major) died
Oh, the press (A major) still hounded you
All the papers had (E major) to say
Was that Marilyn was found (A major) in the nude
Chorus 2
And it (B major) seems to me you lived your life
Like a (E major) candle in the wind (A major)
Never (E major) knowing who to cling to
When the rain (B major) set in
And I would've (A major) liked to know you
But I was just (C sharp minor) a kid
Your candle burned out (B major) long before
Your (A major) legend ever did

Verse 3
(E major) Goodbye, Norma Jeane
Though I never (A major) knew you at all
You had the grace to hold (E major) yourself
While those around you crawled (A major)
(E major) Goodbye, Norma Jeane
From the young man
in the (A major) twenty second row
Who sees you as something more (E major) than sexual
More than just our Marilyn (A major) Monroe
Chorus 3
And it (B major) seems to me you lived your life
Like a (E major) candle in the wind (A major)
Never (E major) knowing who to cling to
When the rain (B major) set in
And I would've (A major) liked to know you
But I was just (C sharp minor) a kid
Your candle burned out (B major) long before
Your (A major) legend ever did
(E major) Your candle burned out (B major) long before
Your (A major) legend ever did
(E major)
