Candle In The Wind Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][G][Em][D][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]Goodbye,
Norma Jeane
Though I [G]never knew you at all
You had the grace to [D]hold yourself
While those around you [G]crawled
They crawled out of [D]the woodwork
And they [G]whispered into your brain
They set you on the tread[D]mill
And they made you change your [G]name

[Verse 2]
[G]
And it [A]seems to me you lived your life
Like [D]a candle in the [G]wind
Never know[D]ing who to cling to
When the [A]rain set in
And I [G]would've liked to known you
But I was [Bm]just a kid
Your candle [G]burned out [A]long before
Your [G]legend ever did

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][A][G][D][A]

[Verse 3]
[D]Loneliness was tough
The toughest [G]role you ever played
Hollywood created a su[D]perstar
And pain was the price you [G]paid
Even when you [D]died
Oh, [G]the press still hounded you
All the papers had [D]to say
[G]Was that [D]Marilyn was found [G]in the nude

[Verse 4]
And it [A]seems to me you lived your life
Like a [D]candle in the [G]wind
Never [D]knowing who to cling to
When the [A]rain set in
And I [G]would've liked to known you
But I was [Bm]just a kid
Your candle [G]burned out [A]long before
Your [G]legend ever did

[Interlude 2]
[G][D][A][G][D][A]

[Verse 5]
[D]Goodbye, Norma Jeane
Though [G]I never knew you at all
You had the grace to [D]hold yourself
While those around you [G]crawled
[D]Goodbye, Norma Jeane
From the young man in [G]the twenty
second row
Who sees you as something
[D]more than sexual
More than just our [G]Marilyn Monroe
[Em]And it

[Verse 6]
[A]seems to me you lived your life
Like a [D]candle in the [G]wind
Never [D]knowing who to cling to
When the [A]rain set in
And I [G]would've liked to known you
But I was [Bm]just a kid
Your candle burned out [A]long before
Your [G]legend ever [D]did
Your candle burned [A]out long before
Your [G]legend ever did
