Candle in the Wind:
E A
Goodbye Norma Jean, though I never knew you at all
E A
You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled
E A
They crawled out of the woodwork and they whispered into your brain
E A
They sent you on a treadmill and they made you change your name
Chorus :
B B7
And it seems to me you lived your life
E A
Like a candle in the wind
E B
Never knowing who to cling to when the rain set in
A C#m
And I would have liked to've known you but I was just a kid
B A E
Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did
Other verses:
Loneliness was tough, the toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar and pain was the price you paid
And even when you died, oh, the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean, though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled
Goodbye Norma Jean, from a young man in the twenty second row
Who sees you as something more than sexual, more than just our Marilyn Monroe

[INTRO]
F C Dm C Bb C F (Hold last F for a whole bar)
[VERSE 1]
Gm C
When are you gonna come down
F Bb
When are you going to land
Gm C
I should have stayed on the farm, should have
F F
listened to my old man
Gm C
You know you can't hold me forever
F Bb
I didn't sign up with you

I'm not a present for your friends to open

This boy's too young to be singing the

[CHORUS]
F A7
So Goodbye yellow brick road
Bb F
where the dogs of society howl
D7 Gm
You can't plant me in your penthouse
C F
I'm going back to my plow
Dm A
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Bb Db
Hunting the horny black toad
Db Eb F C Dm F
... Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Bb C
Beyond the yellow brick
Db Eb Ab Db Db C F
road... Ah..... Ah......
[VERSE 2]
What do you think you'll do then?
I bet to shoot down your plane
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
to set you on your feet again
Maybe you'll get a replacement
There's plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
Sniffing for titbits like you on the
ground... Ah.... Ah....
[REPEAT CHORUS]
