Lyrics and Music by Michael Jackson


Intro: 
  …  } ×2
  G#m  } ×8
  G#m Bbm7 | G#m7 Bbm7  } ×2

G#m Bbm7                G#m7
She was more like a beauty queen
Bbm7                G#m
From a movie scene.
         Bbm7  
I said, “Don’t mind,
            G#m7      Bbm7      C#m7
But what do you mean, I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         G#m  Bbm7   G#m7
In the round?”
           Bbm7      C#m7
She said, “I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         G#m   Bbm7   G#m7 Bbm7   G#m
In the round.”

         Bbm7               G#m7
She told me her name was Billie Jean
Bbm7                  G#m
As she caused a scene,
        Bbm7  
Then every head turned with eyes
G#m7            Bbm7       C#m7
That dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor
         G#m  Bbm7   G#m7 Bbm7  
In the round.

   E
   People always told me,
       G#m
   “Be careful of what you do
             E
   And don’t go around breaking
                  G#m
   Young girls’ hearts.” (Hee-hee.)
       E
   And Mother always told me,
       G#m
   “Be careful of who you love
          E
   And be careful of what you do
   (Oh-oh),
              D#7
   ’Cause the lie becomes the
   Truth.” (Oh-oh.) Hey-ey.

Chorus:
    G#m Bbm7        G#m7   Bbm7  
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    G#m         Bbm7       G#m7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Bbm7      C#m7
     That I am the one
     (Oh, baby),
                            G#m Bbm7  
     But the kid is not my son (hoo).
    G#m7      Bbm7      C#m7
     She says I am the one (oh, baby),
                            G#m
     But the kid is not my son.
           Bbm7          G#m7
     (Hee-hee-hee, no-no,
          Bbm7        G#m
     Hee-hee-hee, hoo.)

       Bbm7               G#m7
For forty days and for forty nights,
Bbm7                 G#m
Law was on her side.
        Bbm7  
But who can stand
              G#m7
When she’s in demand?
Bbm7             C#m7
Her schemes and plans?
’Cause we danced on the floor
         G#m  Bbm7    G#m7
In the round (hee).
        Bbm7        C#m7
So take my strong advice,
Just remember
                G#m   Bbm7  
To always think twice.
          G#m7        Bbm7  
(Do think twice.) Do think twice.
          G#m
(Ah-hoo.)

         Bbm7  
She told my baby
             G#m7
We’d danced ’til three,
Bbm7                   G#m
Then she looked at me.
            Bbm7           G#m7
Then showed a photo of a baby crying.
    Bbm7           C#m7
His eyes were like mine (oh, no).
Go and dance on the floor
       G#m     Bbm7  
In the round, baby.
  G#m7     Bbm7  
(Ooh, hee-hee-hee.)

   E
   People always told me,
       G#m
   “Be careful of what you do
             E
   And don’t go around breaking
                  G#m
   Young girls’ hearts.”
   (Don’t break no hearts, hee-hee.)
           E
   But she came and stood right by me,
            G#m
   Just the smell of sweet perfume.
        E
   This happened much too soon.
       D#7
   She called me to her room, hey-ey.

Chorus:
    G#m Bbm7        G#m7   Bbm7  
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
     (Hoo.)
    G#m         Bbm7       G#m7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Bbm7      C#m7
     That I am the one,
                            G#m
     But the kid is not my son.
     Bbm7     G#m7    Bbm7  
     No-no-no, no-no, no-no-no (hoo).

    G#m Bbm7        G#m7   Bbm7  
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    G#m         Bbm7       G#m7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          Bbm7      C#m7
     That I am the one,
                           G#m
     But the kid is not my son.
      Bbm7  
     (No, no.)
    G#m7      Bbm7      C#m7
     She says I am the one,
                            G#m Bbm7  
     But the kid is not my son.
        G#m7 Bbm7  
     (No, hee-hee-hee.)
