Lyrics and Music by Michael Jackson


Intro: 
  …  } ×2
  D#m  } ×8
  D#m Fm7 | D#m7 Fm7  } ×2

D#m Fm7                 D#m7
She was more like a beauty queen
Fm7                 D#m
From a movie scene.
         Fm7   
I said, “Don’t mind,
            D#m7      Fm7       G#m7
But what do you mean, I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         D#m  Fm7    D#m7
In the round?”
           Fm7       G#m7
She said, “I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         D#m   Fm7    D#m7 Fm7    D#m
In the round.”

         Fm7                D#m7
She told me her name was Billie Jean
Fm7                   D#m
As she caused a scene,
        Fm7   
Then every head turned with eyes
D#m7            Fm7        G#m7
That dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor
         D#m  Fm7    D#m7 Fm7   
In the round.

   B
   People always told me,
       D#m
   “Be careful of what you do
             B
   And don’t go around breaking
                  D#m
   Young girls’ hearts.” (Hee-hee.)
       B
   And Mother always told me,
       D#m
   “Be careful of who you love
          B
   And be careful of what you do
   (Oh-oh),
              Bb7
   ’Cause the lie becomes the
   Truth.” (Oh-oh.) Hey-ey.

Chorus:
    D#m Fm7         D#m7   Fm7   
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    D#m         Fm7        D#m7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Fm7       G#m7
     That I am the one
     (Oh, baby),
                            D#m Fm7   
     But the kid is not my son (hoo).
    D#m7      Fm7       G#m7
     She says I am the one (oh, baby),
                            D#m
     But the kid is not my son.
           Fm7           D#m7
     (Hee-hee-hee, no-no,
          Fm7         D#m
     Hee-hee-hee, hoo.)

       Fm7                D#m7
For forty days and for forty nights,
Fm7                  D#m
Law was on her side.
        Fm7   
But who can stand
              D#m7
When she’s in demand?
Fm7              G#m7
Her schemes and plans?
’Cause we danced on the floor
         D#m  Fm7     D#m7
In the round (hee).
        Fm7         G#m7
So take my strong advice,
Just remember
                D#m   Fm7   
To always think twice.
          D#m7        Fm7   
(Do think twice.) Do think twice.
          D#m
(Ah-hoo.)

         Fm7   
She told my baby
             D#m7
We’d danced ’til three,
Fm7                    D#m
Then she looked at me.
            Fm7            D#m7
Then showed a photo of a baby crying.
    Fm7            G#m7
His eyes were like mine (oh, no).
Go and dance on the floor
       D#m     Fm7   
In the round, baby.
  D#m7     Fm7   
(Ooh, hee-hee-hee.)

   B
   People always told me,
       D#m
   “Be careful of what you do
             B
   And don’t go around breaking
                  D#m
   Young girls’ hearts.”
   (Don’t break no hearts, hee-hee.)
           B
   But she came and stood right by me,
            D#m
   Just the smell of sweet perfume.
        B
   This happened much too soon.
       Bb7
   She called me to her room, hey-ey.

Chorus:
    D#m Fm7         D#m7   Fm7   
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
     (Hoo.)
    D#m         Fm7        D#m7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Fm7       G#m7
     That I am the one,
                            D#m
     But the kid is not my son.
     Fm7      D#m7    Fm7   
     No-no-no, no-no, no-no-no (hoo).

    D#m Fm7         D#m7   Fm7   
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    D#m         Fm7        D#m7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Fm7       G#m7
     That I am the one,
                           D#m
     But the kid is not my son.
      Fm7   
     (No, no.)
    D#m7      Fm7       G#m7
     She says I am the one,
                            D#m Fm7   
     But the kid is not my son.
        D#m7 Fm7   
     (No, hee-hee-hee.)
