Intro: Em 

verse 1:  
Em  
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie screen  
                                                 Am  
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one  
                                   Em  
Who will dance on the floor in the round  
                  Am                                      Em   Am Bmadd1/A   
She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round  

She said her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene  
                                                           Am  
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one  
                                Em  
Who will dance on the floor and round  


Bridge:  

C                        Em  
People always told me be careful of what you do  
      C                               Em  
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts  
    C                        Em  
And mother always told me be careful of who you love  
       C                                 B7  
And be careful of what you do before the lie becomes the truth  

 
Em Am Em Billie Jean is not my lover Em Am Em Am D/A She's just a girl who says that I am the one Am7 Em But the kid is not my son Am D/A She says I am the one Am7 Em Em But the kid is not my son
verse 2: Em For forty days and for forty nights. The law was on her side. Am But who can stand when she's in demand. Her schemes and plans. Em 'Cause we danced on the floor in the round Am Em So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice (Do think twice) verse 3: Em She told my baby that we'd danced till three, then she looked at me Am Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine Em 'Cause we danced on the floor in the round Bridge: C Em People always told me be careful of what you do C Em Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts C Em Then she stood right by me. The smell of sweet perfume. C B7 This happened much too soon. She called me to her room.
Em Am Em Billie Jean is not my lover Em Am Em Am D/A She's just a girl who says that I am the one Am7 Em But the kid is not my son Am D/A She says I am the one Am7 Em But the kid is not my son Am Em So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
