  			CAPO II 

D                                  G 
The King of Pop is dead and gone away 
A                       D 
No one'll ever take his place 
D                          G 
He's in his castle in the sky 
A                     D 
Watching over you and I 
D                             G 
And with his single sparkling glove 
A                           D 
He blows us kisses, show us love 
D                    G 
Is he walking on the moon? 
A                           D 
I hope I don't find out too soon 

only strum the last D one time :)
