-----------------...................

 EmF#m/EEmF#m/E
Verse 1:

 EmF#m/E
  She was more like,
 Em
A beauty queen,
 F#m/E
From a movie scene,
 EmF#m/E
  I said don't mind,
 Em
But what do you mean,
 F#m/EAm7
  I am the one?
Who will dance on the floor,
 EmF#m/E
In the round. 

 Em
  She said;
 F#m/EAm7
  I am the one,
Who will dance on the floor,
 Em
In the round.

Interlude:

Em F#m/E (x2)

Verse 2:

 Em
  She told me,
 F#m/EEm
  Her name was Billie Jean,
 F#m/E
As she caused a scene.
 EmF#m/E
  Then every head turned,
 Em
With eyes that,
 F#m/EAm7
Dreamed of being the one,
Who will dance on the floor,
 Em
In the round.

Interlude:

Em F#m/E (x2)

Bridge 1:

 C
  People always told me,
 Em
Be careful of what you do,
 C
And don't go around,
 Em
Breaking young girls' hearts.

 C
And mother always told me,
 Em
Be careful of who you love,
 C
And be careful of what you do,
 B7
'Cos the lie becomes the truth.

Chorus 1:

 EmF#m/EEmF#m/E
  Billie Jean is not my lover,
 EmF#m/E
  She's just a girl,
 EmF#m/EAm7
Who claims that I am the one.
 EmF#m/E
But the kid is not my son.

  She says; I am the one,
 EmF#m/E
But the kid is not my son.

Verse 3:

 EmF#m/EEm
  For forty days and forty nights,
 F#m/E
The law was on her side.
 EmF#m/E
  But who can stand,
 Em
When she's in demand,
 F#m/EAm7
Her schemes and plans?
'Cos we danced on the floor,
 EmF#m/E
In the round. 

 EmF#m/E
  So take my strong advice;
 EmF#m/E
Just remember to always think twice. 
 EmF#m/E
(Do think twice).  

Verse 3:

 EmF#m/E
  She told my baby,
 Em
We'd danced 'till three,
 F#m/E
Then she looked at me,
 EmF#m/E
  Then showed a photo;
 Em
My baby cried...
 F#m/EAm7
His eyes looked like mine.
Go on dance on the floor,
 EmF#m/EEmF#m/E
In the round, baby.       

Bridge 2:

 C
  People always told me,
 Em
Be careful of what you do,
 C
And don't go around,
 Em
Breaking young girls' hearts.

 C
She came and stood right by me,
 Em
Then the smell of sweet perfume.
 C
This happened much too soon,
 B7
She called me to her room.
