_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[C] I know my dean, though I never knew you [F] at all, you [C] had to build yourself for [F] those around you.
The [C] color of the woodwork when they were [F] spilled into your brain, they set [C] you on a treadmill and they [F] made you change your name. _ _
[G] It seems to me that you lived your life [C] like a [Bb] candle in [F] the [C] wood, never knowing who to cling to when [G] the rain said it ends.
[F] And I would have loved _ _ [Am] _ a candle burned [G] out long before, [F] but you never did.

[G] _ _ [C] Loneliness was tough, the toughest [F] role you ever played, all you [C] had created a superstar, and pain [F] was the price you paid.
Even [C] when you died _ [F] in the crystal hound, all the [C] famous had to say was that murder was [F] found in the wood.
And [G] it seems to me that you lived your life [C] like a candle in the wood, [F] [C] never knowing who to cling to when [G] the rain said it ends.
[F] And I would have loved _ _ [Am] _
a candle burned [G] out long before, [F] but you never [Am] did.
[C] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] Goodbye, my dean, though [F] I never knew you at all, you had [C] the grace to hold yourself for those around [F] you.
Goodbye, _ [C] _
my dean, from the young [F] man who's 22nd row, who sees [C] you as something more [F] than just a Marilyn Monroe.
And [Gb] [G] it seems to me that you lived your life [C] like a [F] candle in the wood, [C] never knowing who to cling to [G] when the rain said it [C] ends.
[F] And I would have _

[C] A candle [F] burned [G] out long before, [F] but you never [C] did.
[D] [C] A candle [Am] burned [G] out _
[F] never [C] did.
[Bb] A candle [F] burned [G] out long before, [F] but you never [C] did.
