1.    She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene.

    I said, "Don't mind, but what do you mean?"  "I am the one
                                        e       - D
    who will dance on the floor in the round."

            C                                 H7
    and be careful of what you do 'cause the lie becomes the truth." Hey!

    Billie Jean is not my lover,
e                 D         e         D         C
    she's just a girl who claims that I am the one,

    but the kid is not my son. 
e            D         C            a             e   - D - e - D
    she says I am the one, but the kid is not my son.

3.   For forty days and forty nights, the law was on her side,
e                 D                e                D          a
    but who can stand, when she's in demand, her schemes and plans.

    'cause we danced on the floor in the round,
e            D           a                             e  - D
    so take my strong advice, just remember to think twice.
