Candle In The Wind - Goodbye Norma Jean by Elton John

Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to uphold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And (1)________ whispered (2)________ your brain

And they made you change your name

Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before

The toughest role you ever played

And it (5)__________ to me, you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never (6)______________ who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all

From the young man in the twenty-second row
Who (7)________ you as something more than sexual
More than (8)________ Marilyn Monroe
And it seems to me, you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have (9)__________ you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye Norma Jean
Goodbye Norma Jean
Goodbye
