Candle in the wind

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

       Si			  Si7
And it seems to me you lived your life
	  Mi           La
Like a candle in the wind
	 Mi		       		       Si
Never knowing who to cling to when the rain set in
	 La                                         Do#m
And I would have liked to 've known you but I was just a kid
                       Si               La
Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did

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

Goodbye Norma Jean, from a young man in the twenty second row
                          Mi
Who sees you as something more than sexual,
                              La  Re  La
more than just our Marilyn Monroe
