Billie Jean

Cornell Chris

   Em
1. She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
   Am
   I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one
   Em
   Who will dance on the floor in the round
   Am                                      Em
   She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round

   She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
   Am
   Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
   Em
   Who will dance on the floor in the round

   C                        Em
*: People always told me be careful of what you do
   C                               Em
   Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
   C                        Em
   And mother always told me be careful of who you love
   C                                 B7
   And be careful of what you do before the lie becomes the truth

   Em     Am      Em     Gadd9/E Em
R: Billie Jean is not my lover
   Am       Em                 Am  Bmadd11/A
   She's just a girl who says that I am the one
   Gadd11/A  Bm7/A  Em
   But the kid is not my son
   Am
   She says I am the one
   Gadd11/A  Bm7/A  Em
   But the kid is not my son

2. For forty days and for forty nights. The law was on her side.
   But who can stand when she's in demand. Her schemes and plans.
   'Cause we danced on the floor in the round
   So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
   (Do think twice)

   Em
3. She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at me
   Am
   Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine
   Em
   'Cause we danced on the floor in the round

*: People always told me be careful of what you do
   Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts
   Then she stood right by me. The smell of sweet perfume.
   This happened much too soon. She called me to her room.

R: Billie Jean is not my lover...
   
   Am                             Em
