[Em]
[E] [Em] She was more like a beauty queen from a movie [E] screen
Said don't mind, but what do you [Em] mean?
I [A]
am the [Am] one
Who will dance on the floor [E] in the [Em] round
She says [A] I am the [Am] one
Who will dance on the floor [C] in the round
[D] [Em]
Said her name was Billie Jean
She caused a scene
Every head turned with eyes
The dream of [Am] being the one
Who will dance on the floor [E] in the [Em] round
[C] People always told me [E] be careful what [Em] you do
[C] Don't go around breaking young girls' [E] hearts
[Em]
[C] Mama always told me [E] be careful who [Em] you love
[C] Be careful what you do
[B] Before I become the truth
[E] [A] Billie Jean [E] is not my [G] mama
[E] She's [Am] just a girl
[Em] Said I'll be the [Am] [Bm]
[Am] one
Who can't [D] even love my [Em] son
[E] She says [Am] I'm [Bm] the one
But [Am] the kid [D] is not [A] my [E] son
[Em] 40 days and 40 nights
The law's on her side
Who could stand when she's in demand
Her [A] schemes, [Am] her plans
Who will dance on the floor [E] in the [Em] round
She says I'm the one
So take my [Am] strong advice
Remember to always [C] think twice
Do think [Bm] twice
[E] Told my baby that we'd dance the [Em] three
She looked at [E] me
Should've followed my baby's [Em] cry
His [Am] eyes were like mine
Cause we danced on the [E] floor in the [Em] round
[E]
[C] People always told [Em] me
Be careful what you do
[C] Don't go around breaking young [E] girls' [Em]
hearts
[C] She stood right by me
[E] Smelled [Em] that sweet perfume
[C] It happened much too soon
[B] She called me a Subaru
[E] [A] I'm the one
Billie Jean [E] is not my [Em] lover
[E] [A] She's just a girl
[E] Said [Em] I'll be the one
[Am] [Bm]
[C] But the kid is [D] not my [Em] son
She says [Am] I'm [D] the one
[Am] But the kid [A] is not my [E] son
[A] [C]
[E] [Em]

So [B] take my [Am] strong advice
[Em] And [Am] remember [G] to always [E] think twice
[Bm] Do
