Lyrics and Music by Michael Jackson


Intro: 
  …  } ×2
  Fm  } ×8
  Fm Gm7 | Fm7 Gm7  } ×2

Fm  Gm7                 Fm7
She was more like a beauty queen
Gm7                 Fm
From a movie scene.
         Gm7   
I said, “Don’t mind,
            Fm7       Gm7       Bbm7
But what do you mean, I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Fm   Gm7    Fm7
In the round?”
           Gm7       Bbm7
She said, “I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Fm    Gm7    Fm7  Gm7    Fm
In the round.”

         Gm7                Fm7
She told me her name was Billie Jean
Gm7                   Fm
As she caused a scene,
        Gm7   
Then every head turned with eyes
Fm7             Gm7        Bbm7
That dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Fm   Gm7    Fm7  Gm7   
In the round.

   C#
   People always told me,
       Fm
   “Be careful of what you do
             C#
   And don’t go around breaking
                  Fm
   Young girls’ hearts.” (Hee-hee.)
       C#
   And Mother always told me,
       Fm
   “Be careful of who you love
          C#
   And be careful of what you do
   (Oh-oh),
              C7
   ’Cause the lie becomes the
   Truth.” (Oh-oh.) Hey-ey.

Chorus:
    Fm  Gm7         Fm7    Gm7   
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    Fm          Gm7        Fm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Gm7       Bbm7
     That I am the one
     (Oh, baby),
                            Fm  Gm7   
     But the kid is not my son (hoo).
    Fm7       Gm7       Bbm7
     She says I am the one (oh, baby),
                            Fm
     But the kid is not my son.
           Gm7           Fm7
     (Hee-hee-hee, no-no,
          Gm7         Fm
     Hee-hee-hee, hoo.)

       Gm7                Fm7
For forty days and for forty nights,
Gm7                  Fm
Law was on her side.
        Gm7   
But who can stand
              Fm7
When she’s in demand?
Gm7              Bbm7
Her schemes and plans?
’Cause we danced on the floor
         Fm   Gm7     Fm7
In the round (hee).
        Gm7         Bbm7
So take my strong advice,
Just remember
                Fm    Gm7   
To always think twice.
          Fm7         Gm7   
(Do think twice.) Do think twice.
          Fm
(Ah-hoo.)

         Gm7   
She told my baby
             Fm7
We’d danced ’til three,
Gm7                    Fm
Then she looked at me.
            Gm7            Fm7
Then showed a photo of a baby crying.
    Gm7            Bbm7
His eyes were like mine (oh, no).
Go and dance on the floor
       Fm      Gm7   
In the round, baby.
  Fm7      Gm7   
(Ooh, hee-hee-hee.)

   C#
   People always told me,
       Fm
   “Be careful of what you do
             C#
   And don’t go around breaking
                  Fm
   Young girls’ hearts.”
   (Don’t break no hearts, hee-hee.)
           C#
   But she came and stood right by me,
            Fm
   Just the smell of sweet perfume.
        C#
   This happened much too soon.
       C7
   She called me to her room, hey-ey.

Chorus:
    Fm  Gm7         Fm7    Gm7   
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
     (Hoo.)
    Fm          Gm7        Fm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Gm7       Bbm7
     That I am the one,
                            Fm
     But the kid is not my son.
     Gm7      Fm7     Gm7   
     No-no-no, no-no, no-no-no (hoo).

    Fm  Gm7         Fm7    Gm7   
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    Fm          Gm7        Fm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Gm7       Bbm7
     That I am the one,
                           Fm
     But the kid is not my son.
      Gm7   
     (No, no.)
    Fm7       Gm7       Bbm7
     She says I am the one,
                            Fm  Gm7   
     But the kid is not my son.
        Fm7  Gm7   
     (No, hee-hee-hee.)
