MI

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

And it seems to me you lived your life
       MI            LA

Like a candle in the wind
      MI
Never knowing who to cling to
 	      SI
when the rain set in
      LA
And I would have liked to've known you
          DO#m
but I was just a kid
                       SI
Your candle burned out long
            LA		MI/SOL# FA#m MI

before your legend ever did

MI

Loneliness was tough
                 LA
the toughest role you ever played
                    MI/SOL#
Hollywood created a superstar
                           LA
and pain was the price you paid
                  MI
And even when you died, oh
    LA
the press still hounded you
               MI/SOL#
All the papers had to say
                           LA
was that Marilyn was found in the nude

Goodbye Norma Jean
                        LA
from a young man in the twenty second row
                          MI/SOL#        
Who sees you as something more than sexual
                       LA
more than just our Marilyn Monroe
