   [Verse 1]
Dm                             
She was more like a beauty queen 
         D5       Dm  D5
from a movie scene
Dm                                
I said don't mind, but what do you
        D5     Gm
 mean I am the one
Gm                                 
Who will dance on the floor in the 
Dm     D5   Dm
round
           D5      Gm             
She said I am the one who will 
                       Dm
dance on the floor in the round

   [Verse 2]
Dm                                
She told me her name was Billie 
          D5           Dm  D5
Jean as she caused the scene
Dm                             
Then every head turned with eyes 
                  D5        Gm
that dreamed of being the one
Gm                                 
Who will dance on the floor in the 
Dm
round

   [Pre Chorus]
Bb                    Dm
People always told me be careful 
what you do
Bb                             
don't come around breaking young 
         Dm
girls' hearts
Bb                        Dm
And mother always told me be careful
 who you love
Bb                                
And be careful of what you do 
       A
'cause the lie becomes the truth

   [Chorus]
Dm                      D5    D
Billie Jean is not my lover
D5                                
She's just a girl who claims that 
         Gm
I am the one
Gm                    Dm
But the kid is not my son
Dm                Gm             
She says I am the one, but the 
            Dm
kid is not my son

   [Verse 3]
Dm                                
For forty days and for forty 
              D5      Dm  D5
nights The law was on her side
Dm                            
But who can stand when she's in 
                 D5       Gm
demand' Her schemes and plans
Gm                                
'Cause we danced on the floor in 
   Dm     D5  Dm
the round
           D5        Gm      
So take my strong advice, just 
                           Dm

Dm
 (Do think twice)

   [Verse 4]
Dm                                
She told my baby to dance to three
          D5     Dm  D5
 then she looked at me,
Dm                          
Then showed a photo of a baby 
               D5       Gm
cryin', eyes was like mine
Gm                            
So we dance on the floor in the 
     Dm
round, baby

People always told me be careful 
what you do
Bb                           
don't go around breaking young 
         Dm
girls' hearts
Bb                             Dm
She came and stood right by me then 
the smell of her sweet perfume
Bb                             
this happened much too soon  She 
            A
called me to her room
