Michael Jackson (1982)
Key of:Gm
Gm Am
| D - - U - - d - |
Intro
| [Gm] [Am] | [Gm] [Am] |
| [Gm] [Am] | [Gm] [Am] |
[Gm] She was [Am] more like a [Gm] beauty queen, from a [Am] movie scene,
[Gm] I said; [Am] don't mind, but what [Gm] do you mean; [Am] I am the [Cm] one?
Who will [Cm] dance on the floor, in the [Gm] round. [Am] [Gm]
She said; [Am] I am the [Cm] one, who will dance on the floor, in the [Gm] round.
| [Gm] [Am] | [Gm] [Am] |
[Gm] She told me [Am] her name was [Gm] Billie Jean, as she [Am] caused a scene.
[Gm] Then every [Am] head turned, with [Gm] eyes that dreamed of [Am] being the [Cm] one,
Who will dance on the floor, in the [Gm] round.
| [Gm] [Am] | [Gm] [Am] |
Pre-Chorus
[Eb] People always told me; be [Gm] careful what you do;
And don't [Eb] go around breaking young girl's [Gm] hearts.
And [Eb] mother always told me; be [Gm] careful of who you love;
And be [Eb] careful of what you do, 'cos the [D7] lie becomes the truth.
Chorus
[Gm] Billie [Am] Jean is [Gm] not my [Am] lover;
[Gm] She's just a [Am] girl who, [Gm] claims that [Am] I am the [Cm] one.
But the [Cm] kid is not my [Gm] son. [Am] [Gm]
She says; [Am] I am the [Cm] one, but the [Cm] kid is not my [Gm] son.
| [Gm] [Am] | [Gm] [Am] |
[Gm] For [Am] forty days and [Gm] forty nights, the law was [Am] on her side.
[Gm] But who can [Am] stand, when she's [Gm] in demand, [Am] her schemes and [Cm] plans?
'Cos we [Cm] danced on the floor, in the [Gm] round. [Am] [Gm]
So take [Am] my strong ad- [Cm] vice; just remember to always think [Gm] twice.
[Am](Do think [Gm] twice, do think [Am] twice).
[Gm] She told my [Am] baby we'd [Gm] danced 'till three, then she [Am] looked a me,
[Gm] Then showed a [Am] photo; my [Gm] baby cried; his [Am] eyes looked like [Cm] mine.
Go on [Cm] dance on the floor, in the [Gm] round, baby. [Am] [Gm] [Am]
Pre-Chorus
[Eb] People always told me; be [Gm] careful what you do;
And don't [Eb] go around breaking young girl's [Gm] hearts.
She [Eb] came and stood right by me; then the [Gm] smell of sweet perfume.
This [Eb] happened much too soon; she [D7] called me to her room.
Chorus
[Gm] Billie [Am] Jean is [Gm] not my [Am] lover;
[Gm] She's just a [Am] girl who, [Gm] claims that [Am] I am the [Cm] one.
But the [Cm] kid is not my [Gm] son. [Am] [Gm] [Am]
[Gm] Billie [Am] Jean is [Gm] not my [Am] lover;

But the [Cm] kid is not my [Gm] son. [Am] [Gm]
She says; [Am] I am the [Cm] one, but the kid is not my [Gm] son.
| [Gm] [Am] | [Gm] [Am] |
She says [Am] I am the [Cm] one,
but the [Cm] kid is not my [Gm]son. [Am] [Gm] [Am]
[Gm] Billie [Am] Jean is [Gm] not my [Am] lover;
[Gm] She's just a [Am] girl who, [Gm] claims that [Am] I am the [Cm] one.
But the kid is not my [Gm] son. [Am] [Gm]
She says; [Am] I am the [Cm] one, but the kid is not my [Gm] son. [Am] [Gm]
She says; [Am] I am the [Cm] one, but the kid is not my [Gm] son. [Am] [Gm]
Coda
She says [Am] I am the [Gm] one, [Am] [Gm]
She says [Am] he is my [Gm] son. [Am] [Gm]
She says [Am] I am the [Gm] one.
