[Em] x4

[Verse 1]
[Em]
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
                                                 [Am]
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one
                                   [Em]
Who will dance on the floor in the round
                  [Am]                                      [Em]
She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round

[Em]
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
                                                           [Am]
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
                                   [Em]
Who will dance on the floor in the round

[Pre-Chorus]
[C]                        [Em]
People always told me be careful of what you do
      [C]                               [Em]
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
    [C]                        [Em]
And mother always told me be careful of who you love
       [C]                                 [B7]
And be careful of what you do before the lie becomes the truth

[Chorus]
[Em]     [Am]      [Em]     [Gadd9/E] [Em]
Billie Jean is not my lover
             [Am]       [Em]                 [Am]  [Bmadd11/A]
She's just a girl who says that I am the one
        [Gadd11/A]   [Bm7/A]    [Em]
But the kid is     not   my son
                  [Am]
She says I am the one
        [Gadd11/A]   [Bm7/A]    [Em]
But the kid is     not   my son

[Verse 2]
[Em]
For forty days and for forty nights. The law was on her side.
                                                        [Am]
But who can stand when she's in demand. Her schemes and plans.
                                     [Em]
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
                    [Am]                             [Em]
So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
(Do think twice)

[Em]
She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at me
                                                     [Am]
Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine
                                     [Em]
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round

[Pre-Chorus]
[C]                        [Em]
People always told me be careful of what you do
      [C]                               [Em]
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
         [C]                      [Em]
Then she stood right by me. The smell of sweet perfume.
     [C]                           [B7]
This happened much too soon. She called me to her room.

[Chorus]
[Em]     [Am]      [Em]     [Gadd9/E] [Em]
Billie Jean is not my lover
             [Am]       [Em]                 [Am]  [Bmadd11/A]
She's just a girl who says that I am the one
        [Gadd11/A]   [Bm7/A]    [Em]
But the kid is     not   my son
                  [Am]
She says I am the one
        [Gadd11/A]   [Bm7/A]    [Em]
But the kid is     not   my son
                    [Am]                             [Em]
So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
(Do think twice)
