Songtext

[Intro]
| Em7 B7sus4 | Em7 - | Em7 B7sus4 | Em7 - |

[Verse 1]
Em7        Bm          Em7
   She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said,
       Bm              Em7                  Am
"Don't mind me but what   you mean I am the one
                                          Em7 B7sus4
Who will dance on the floor in the round?"
Em7
   She said,
          Am                                           Em7 B7sus4 Em7
"I am the one who will dance on the floor in the round"

[Verse 2]
Em7            Bm              Em7
   She told me her name was Billie Jean as she caused a
scene
           Bm                    Em7
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the
Am
one
                                      Em7 B7sus4 Em7
Who will dance on the floor in a round

[Pre-Chorus]
C
People always told me,
    Em
"Be careful what you do
      C                               Em
Don't go 'round breaking young girls' hearts",
    C
And mama always told me,
    Em
"Be careful who you love
   Am
Be careful what you do,
    B7
the lie becomes the truth"

[Chorus]
Em7       Bm      Em7       Bm
   Billie Jean is not my lover
Em7             Bm       Em7                  Am
   She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
                         Em7 B7sus4
But the kid is not my son
Em7                  Am
   She says I am the one,
                         Em7 B7sus4 Em7
but the kid is not my son

[Verse 3]
Em7          Bm              Em7
   For forty days and for forty nights,
law was on her side
            Bm                 Em7
But who can stand when she's in   demand,
                Am
her schemes and plans
                                         Em7 B7sus4
Cause we danced on the floor in the round
Em7                    Am
   So take my strong advice
                              Em7  B7sus4 Em7
Just remember to always think twice

[Verse 4]
Em7            Bm
   She told my baby,
         Em7
we danced   till three
Then she looked at me,
              Bm
then showed a photo
   Em7                            Am
My baby cried, his eyes were like mine,
                                          Em7 B7sus4 Em7
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round

[Pre-Chorus]
C
People always told me,
    Em
"Be careful what you do
      C                               Em
Don't go 'round breaking young girls' hearts",
    C
And mama always told me,
    Em
"Be careful who you love
   Am
Be careful what you do,
    B7
the lie becomes the truth"

[Chorus]
Em7       Bm      Em7       Bm
   Billie Jean is not my lover
Em7             Bm       Em7                  Am
   She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
                         Em7 B7sus4
But the kid is not my son
Em7                  Am
   She says I am the one,
                         Em7 B7sus4
but the kid is not my son

[Outro]
Em7  Em7       Bm      Em7       Bm
   So   Billie Jean is not my lover
Em7      Bm        Em7       Bm
   Billie  Jean is not my lover
Em7      Bm        Em7    Bm
   Billie  Jean is not my lover
Em7 Bm     Em7    Bm    Em
   Mmm mmm mmm mmm  mmm,
