Elton John - Candle in the wind

^DGoodbye Norma Jean Though I never ^Gknew you at all You had the grace to ^Dhold yourself While those around you ^Gcrawled They crawled out of the ^Dwoodwork And they ^Gwhispered into your brain They set you on the ^Dtreadmill And they made you change your ^Gname

And it ^Aseems to me you ^A7lived your life Like a ^Dcandle in the ^Gwind Never ^Dknowing who to cling to When the ^Arain set in And I ^Gwould have liked to have known you But I was ^Bmjust a kid Your candle burned out ^Along before Your ^Glegend ever ^Ddid

^DLoneliness was tough The toughest ^Grole you ever played Hollywood created a ^Dsuperstar And pain was the price you ^Gpaid Even when you ^Ddied Oh the ^Gpress still hounded you

Was that ^DMarilyn was found in the ^Gnude And it ^Aseems to me you ^A7lived your life Like a ^Dcandle in the ^Gwind Never ^Dknowing who to cling to When the ^Arain set in And I ^Gwould have liked to have known you But I was ^Bmjust a kid Your candle burned out ^Along before Your ^Glegend ever ^Ddid

^DGoodbye Norma Jean Though I never ^Gknew you at all You had the ^Dgrace to hold yourself While those around you ^Gcrawled ^DGoodbye Norma Jean From the young man ^Gin the 22nd row Who sees you as something more than ^Dsexual More than just our Marilyn Mon^Groe

And it ^Aseems to me you ^A7lived your life Like a ^Dcandle in the ^Gwind Never ^Dknowing who to cling to When the ^Arain set in And I ^Gwould have liked to have known you But I was ^Bmjust a kid Your candle burned out ^Along before Your ^Glegend ever ^Ddid

Your candle burned out ^Along before Your ^Glegend ever ^Ddid
