Lyrics and Music by Michael Jackson


Intro: 
  …  } ×2
  Bm  } ×8
  Bm C#m7 | Bm7 C#m7  } ×2

Bm  C#m7                Bm7
She was more like a beauty queen
C#m7                Bm
From a movie scene.
         C#m7  
I said, “Don’t mind,
            Bm7       C#m7      Em7
But what do you mean, I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Bm   C#m7   Bm7
In the round?”
           C#m7      Em7
She said, “I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Bm    C#m7   Bm7  C#m7   Bm
In the round.”

         C#m7               Bm7
She told me her name was Billie Jean
C#m7                  Bm
As she caused a scene,
        C#m7  
Then every head turned with eyes
Bm7             C#m7       Em7
That dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor
         Bm   C#m7   Bm7  C#m7  
In the round.

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

Chorus:
    Bm  C#m7        Bm7    C#m7  
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    Bm          C#m7       Bm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          C#m7      Em7
     That I am the one
     (Oh, baby),
                            Bm  C#m7  
     But the kid is not my son (hoo).
    Bm7       C#m7      Em7
     She says I am the one (oh, baby),
                            Bm
     But the kid is not my son.
           C#m7          Bm7
     (Hee-hee-hee, no-no,
          C#m7        Bm
     Hee-hee-hee, hoo.)

       C#m7               Bm7
For forty days and for forty nights,
C#m7                 Bm
Law was on her side.
        C#m7  
But who can stand
              Bm7
When she’s in demand?
C#m7             Em7
Her schemes and plans?
’Cause we danced on the floor
         Bm   C#m7    Bm7
In the round (hee).
        C#m7        Em7
So take my strong advice,
Just remember
                Bm    C#m7  
To always think twice.
          Bm7         C#m7  
(Do think twice.) Do think twice.
          Bm
(Ah-hoo.)

         C#m7  
She told my baby
             Bm7
We’d danced ’til three,
C#m7                   Bm
Then she looked at me.
            C#m7           Bm7
Then showed a photo of a baby crying.
    C#m7           Em7
His eyes were like mine (oh, no).
Go and dance on the floor
       Bm      C#m7  
In the round, baby.
  Bm7      C#m7  
(Ooh, hee-hee-hee.)

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

Chorus:
    Bm  C#m7        Bm7    C#m7  
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
     (Hoo.)
    Bm          C#m7       Bm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          C#m7      Em7
     That I am the one,
                            Bm
     But the kid is not my son.
     C#m7     Bm7     C#m7  
     No-no-no, no-no, no-no-no (hoo).

    Bm  C#m7        Bm7    C#m7  
     Billie Jean is not my lover.
    Bm          C#m7       Bm7
     She’s just a girl who claims
          C#m7      Em7
     That I am the one,
                           Bm
     But the kid is not my son.
      C#m7  
     (No, no.)
    Bm7       C#m7      Em7
     She says I am the one,
                            Bm  C#m7  
     But the kid is not my son.
        Bm7  C#m7  
     (No, hee-hee-hee.)
