Candle In The Wind - Elton John (Norma Jean)
I took this from music I have for the Piano.
The lyrics, chords and presentation are correct (except some quite long piano solos are omitted).
Intro: B B7 E B7 E B (Esus4 = [022200]
EGoodbye Norma Jean, though I never Aknew you at all,
You had the B7grace to Ehold yourself, while Athose aEround you Acrawled.
They crawled out of the Fwoodwork, and they whispered A into your brain,
They set you on the treadE..mill, and they made you change your Aname.
And it Bseems to me you B7lived your life, like a Ecandle in the Awind,
Never Eknowing who to clingEsus4 to, when the rain B set in.
And I Awould have liked to have known you, but I was justC#m a kid,
Your candle burned out Blong before, your Alegend ever did. G#m F#m E
ELoneliness was tough, the toughest role you A ever played,
Hollywood created a B7 E superstar, and Apain was the E price you Apaid.
Even when you Fdied, oh the Apress still hounded you,
All the papers had E to say, was that Marilyn was found in the Anude.
And it Bseems to me you B7lived your life, like a Ecandle in the Awind,
Never Eknowing who to cling Esus4 to, when the rain B set in.
And I Awould have liked to have known you, but I was just C#m a kid,
Your candle burned out Blong before, your Alegend ever G#mdid. F#m E
EGoodbye Norma Jean, though I never A knew you at all,
You had the B7grace to Ehold yourself, while Athose aEround you Acrawled.
EGoodbye Norma Jean, from the young man in the Atwenty second row,
Who sees you as something B7more than sEexual, more than Ajust our MariElyn MonAroe.
And it Bseems to me you B7lived your life, like a Ecandle in the Awind,
Never Eknowing who to cling Esus4 to, Ewhen the rain B set in.
And I Awould have liked to have known you, but I was just C#m a kid,
Your candle burned out Blong before, your lAegend ever G#mdid; F#m E
