Lyrics and Music by Michael Jackson


Intro: 
  …  } ×2
  Cm  } ×8
  Cm Dm/C | Cm7 Dm/C  } ×2

Cm  Dm/C                Cm7
She was more like a beauty queen
Dm/C                Cm
From a movie scene.
         Dm/C
I said, “Don’t mind,
            Cm7       Dm/C      Fm7
But what do you mean, I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Cm   Dm/C   Cm7
In the round?”
           Dm/C      Fm7
She said, “I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Cm    Dm/C   Cm7  Dm/C   Cm
In the round.”

         Dm/C               Cm7
She told me her name was Billie Jean
Dm/C                  Cm
As she caused a scene,
        Dm/C
Then every head turned with eyes
Cm7             Dm/C       Fm7
That dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Cm   Dm/C   Cm7  Dm/C
In the round.

   G#
   People always told me,
       Cm
   “Be careful of what you do
             G#
   And don’t go around breaking
                  Cm
   Young girls’ hearts.” (Hee-hee.)
       G#
   And Mother always told me,
       Cm
   “Be careful of who you love
          G#
   And be careful of what you do
   (Oh-oh),
              G7
   ’Cause the lie becomes the
   Truth.” (Oh-oh.) Hey-ey.

Chorus:
    Cm  Dm/C        Cm7    Dm/C
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    Cm          Dm/C       Cm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Dm/C      Fm7
     That I am the one
     (Oh, baby),
                            Cm  Dm/C
     But the kid is not my son (hoo).
    Cm7       Dm/C      Fm7
     She says I am the one (oh, baby),
                            Cm
     But the kid is not my son.
           Dm/C          Cm7
     (Hee-hee-hee, no-no,
          Dm/C        Cm
     Hee-hee-hee, hoo.)

       Dm/C               Cm7
For forty days and for forty nights,
Dm/C                 Cm
Law was on her side.
        Dm/C
But who can stand
              Cm7
When she’s in demand?
Dm/C             Fm7
Her schemes and plans?
’Cause we danced on the floor
         Cm   Dm/C    Cm7
In the round (hee).
        Dm/C        Fm7
So take my strong advice,
Just remember
                Cm    Dm/C
To always think twice.
          Cm7         Dm/C
(Do think twice.) Do think twice.
          Cm
(Ah-hoo.)

         Dm/C
She told my baby
             Cm7
We’d danced ’til three,
Dm/C                   Cm
Then she looked at me.
            Dm/C           Cm7
Then showed a photo of a baby crying.
    Dm/C           Fm7
His eyes were like mine (oh, no).
Go and dance on the floor
       Cm      Dm/C
In the round, baby.
  Cm7      Dm/C
(Ooh, hee-hee-hee.)

   G#
   People always told me,
       Cm
   “Be careful of what you do
             G#
   And don’t go around breaking
                  Cm
   Young girls’ hearts.”
   (Don’t break no hearts, hee-hee.)
           G#
   But she came and stood right by me,
            Cm
   Just the smell of sweet perfume.
        G#
   This happened much too soon.
       G7
   She called me to her room, hey-ey.

Chorus:
    Cm  Dm/C        Cm7    Dm/C
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
     (Hoo.)
    Cm          Dm/C       Cm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Dm/C      Fm7
     That I am the one,
                            Cm
     But the kid is not my son.
     Dm/C     Cm7     Dm/C
     No-no-no, no-no, no-no-no (hoo).

    Cm  Dm/C        Cm7    Dm/C
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    Cm          Dm/C       Cm7

     That I am the one,
                           Cm
     But the kid is not my son.
      Dm/C
     (No, no.)
    Cm7       Dm/C      Fm7
     She says I am the one,
                            Cm  Dm/C
     But the kid is not my son.
        Cm7  Dm/C
     (No, hee-hee-hee.)
