Good work! But replace the D by a Bm. Example: Em Bm B7 Those who are dead are not dead they're just living in my head Em Bm B7 And since I fell for that spell I am living it as well oh oh oh

I was thinking about my brother in law yesterday, we never expected him to pass out, he was like a brother for me, then in this dawn I played this song after listening on radio
