[Intro]
C
Goodbye, Norma Jean
F
Though I never knew you at all
C
You had the grace to hold yourself
F
While those around you crawled
C
They crawled out of the woodwork
F
And they whispered into your brain
C
They set you on the treadmill
F
And they made you change your name
[Refrão]
G
And it seems to me you lived your life
C F
Like a candle in the wind
C
Never knowing who to cling to
G
When the rain set in
F G
And I would have liked to have known you
Am
But I was just a kid
[Próxima Parte]
G
Your candle burned out long before
F C
Your legend ever did
G F C G
Haaaaa haaaaa
C
Loneliness was tough
F
The toughest role you ever played
C
Hollywood created a superstar
F
And pain was the price you paid
C
Even when you died
F
Oh, the press still hounded you
C
All the papers had to say
F
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G
Your candle burned out long before
F C
Your legend ever did
C
Goodbye, Norma Jean
F
Though I never knew you at all
C
You had the grace to hold yourself
F
While those around you crawled
C
Goodbye Norma Jean
F
From the young man in the twenty second row
C
Who sees you as something more than sexual
F
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G
Your candle burned out long before
F C
Your legend ever did
