Verse 1 

F#m      G#m/F#      A/E                  G#m/F# 
 She was more like a beauty queen, from a movie scene, 
F#m      G#m/F#               A/E          G#m/F#   Bm7 
 I said; don't mind, but what do you mean; I am the one? 
                                    F#m   G#m/F# A/E 
Who will dance on the floor, in the round.

F#m         G#m/F#            A/E                  G#m/F#    Bm7 
 Then every head turned, with eyes that dreamed of being the one,

Who will dance on the floor, in the round.

 People always told me; be careful what you do;

And don't go around breaking young girl's hearts.

And mother always told me; be careful of who you love;

 Billie Jean is not my lover;

 She's just a girl who, claims that I am the one.

But the kid is not my son.

F#m  G#m/F#         A/E                       G#m/F# 
 For forty days and forty nights, the law was on her side. 
F#m          G#m/F#            A/E        G#m/F#          Bm7 
 But who can stand, when she's in demand, her schemes and plans? 
                                    F#m   G#m/F# A/E 
'Cos we danced on the floor, in the round.

(Do think twice, do think twice).

F#m            G#m/F#    A/E             G#m/F#           Bm7 
 Then showed a photo; my baby cried; his eyes looked like mine.

She came and stood right by me; then the smell of sweet perfume.
