Capo: Fret 2
Tuning: Standard, E A D G B E
So since the death of the "King of Pop", everyone has been submitting
Michael Jackson tabs. So I thought I would give it a shot.
(The rhythm of the song is based off the bassline. So just try and mimic it.
For the verses and choruses, I throw in some palm mutes to make it more interesting.)
Capo 2nd fret
[Intro]
(I counted about 24 measures of Em. Feel free to shorten if you want.)
[Verse 1]
She was more l
ike a beauty q
ueen, from a m
ovie scene,
I said; don't
mind, but what
do you mean;
I am the one?
Who will dance
on the floor,
in the round.
She said; I am
the one, who
will dance on
the floor, in
the round.
[Verse 2]
She told me he
r name was Bil
lie Jean, as s
he caused a sc
ene.
Then every hea
d turned, with
eyes that dre
amed of being
the one,
Who will dance
on the floor,
in the round.
[Pre-Chorus]
People always
told me; be ca
reful what you
do;
And don't go a
round breaking
young girl's
hearts.
And mother alw
ays told me; b
e careful of w
ho you love;
And be careful
of what you d
o, 'cos the li
e becomes the
truth.
[Chorus 1]
Billie Jean is
not my lover;
She's just a g
irl who, claim
s that I am th
e one.
But the kid is
not my son.
She says; I am
the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
[Verse 3]
For forty days
and forty nig
hts, the law w
as on her side
.
But who can st
and, when she'
s in demand, h
er schemes and
plans?
'Cos we danced
on the floor,
in the round.
So take my str
ong advice; ju
st remember to
always think
twice.
(Do think twice).
[Verse 4]
She told my ba
by we'd danced
till three, t
hen she looked
at me,
Then showed a
photo; my baby
cried; his ey
es looked like
mine.
Go on dance on
the floor, in
the round, ba
by.
[Pre-chorus 2]
People always
told me; be ca
reful what you
do;
And don't go a
round breaking
young girl's
hearts.
She came and s
tood right by
me; then the s
mell of sweet
perfume.
This happened
much too soon;
she called me
to her room.
[Chorus 2]
Billie Jean is
not my lover;
She's just a g
irl who, claim
s that I am th
e one.
But the kid is
not my son.
Billie Jean is
not my lover;
She's just a g
irl who, claim
s that I am th
e one.
But the kid is
not my son.
She says; I am
the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
[Bridge]
She says; I a
m the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
She says; I a
m the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
She says; I a
m the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
She says; I a
m the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
She says; I a
m the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
She says; I a
m the one,
But the kid is
not my son.
[Outro]
