E E                                A A 
Goodbye Norma Jean, though I never knew you at all
E E A A
You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled
E E A A
They crawled out of the woodwork and they whispered into your brain
E E A A
They sent you on a treadmill and they made you change your name

# Chorus

B B B7 B7
And it seems to me you lived your life
E E A A
Like a candle in the wind
E E B B
Never knowing who to cling to when the rain set in
A A C#m C#m
And I would have liked to've known you but I was just a kid
B B A A E E
Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did

About this song: Candle In The Wind

"Candle in the Wind" is a song with music by Elton John and lyrics by Bernie Taupin. It was originally written in 1973, in honor of Marilyn Monroe, who had died 11 years earlier. In 1997, John performed a remake of the song as a tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales. This version of the song was released as a single, and reached No. 1 in many countries, proving a much greater success than the original.
