[Verse 1]
Am C D
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
Am C G D
I said, "oh mama, what do you mean I am the one?"
Am C D
She said I am the one
Am C G D
She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene
Am C G D
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Am C G D
Go and dance on the floor in the round
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C G D
And the people always told me, be careful what you do
Am C D
And don't you go around breaking young girls' hearts
Am C G D
My mother always told me, be careful who you love
Am C G D
And be careful what you do cause a lie becomes a truth
[Chorus]
Am C D
And Billie Jean is not my lover
Am C G D
She's just a girl who thinks that I am the one
Am C D
But the kid is not my son
Am C D
But the kid is not my son
[Post-Chorus - Instrumental]
Am C D
She says I am the one
[Verse 2]
Am C
For forty days and for forty nights
D
The law was on her side
Am C
But who can stand when she's in demand?
G D
Her schemes and plans
Am C G
So take my strong advice
D
Don't think twice
Am C G
She told me baby we'd danced 'til three
D
Then she looked at me
Am C G
She showed me a photo of a baby crying
D
His eyes looked like mine
Am C G D
Go and dance on the floor in the round
[Pre-Chorus]
Am C G D
And the people always told me, be careful what you do
Am C D
And don't you go around breaking young girls' hearts
Am C
But she came and stood right by me
G D
And she smelled of sweet perfume
Am C
And this happened much too soon
G D
And she brought me to her room
[Chorus]
Am C D
And Billie Jean is not my lover
Am C G D
She's just a girl who thinks that I am the one
Am C D
But the kid is not my son
Am C D
But the kid is not my son
[Post-Chorus - Instrumental]
Am C D
She says I am the one
