F#m
She was more like a beauty queen
From a movie scene
I said don't mind
Bm
But what do you mean: I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
F#m
In the round
Bm
She said I am the one
Who will dance on the floor
F#m
In the round
She told me her name was Billie Jean
As she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that
Bm
Dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor
In the round
[Pré-Refrão]
D9
People always told me:
F#m7(11)
Be careful of what you do
D9
And don't go around
F#m7(11)
Breaking young girl's hearts
D9
My mother always told me:
F#m7(11)
Be careful of who you love
D9
And be careful of what you do
C#7
'Cause the lie becomes the truth

F#m (Frase 1)
Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl
Bm (Frase 2)
Who claims that I am the one
F#m
But the kid is not my son
Bm (Frase 2)
She says I am the one
F#m
But the kid is not my son
[Segunda Parte]
F#m
For forty days and forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand
Bm
Her schemes and plans
'Cause we danced on the floor
F#m
In the round
Bm
So take my strong advice
F#m
Just remember to always think twice
(Do think twice, do think twice)
She told: My baby
We danced 'til three
Then she looked at me
Then showed a photo my baby cried
Bm
His eyes were like mine
'Cause we danced on the floor
F#m
In the round, baby
[Pré-Refrão]
D9
People always told me
F#m7(11)
Be careful of what you do
D9
And don't go around
F#m7(11)
Breaking young girl's hearts
D9
But she came and stood right by me
F#m7(11)
Just to smell her sweet perfume
D9
This happened much too soon
C#7
She called me to her room
