BILLIE JEAN (as played by Caetano Veloso)
(Dm6) She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don`t mind but what do you mean,
I am the (Em9) one
Who will dance on the floor in the (Dm6)round?
She said I am the (Em9)one
Who will dance on the floor in the (Dm6) round?
(Dm6) She told me her name was Billie Jean as she caused a scene.
Then ev`ry head turned with eyes that dreamed
Of being the (Em9) one,
Who will dance on the floor in the (Dm6) round
(Bm7)People always told me, be (Dm6)careful what you do.
And don`t (Bm7) go around breaking young girls' hearts(Dm6).
And (Bm7)mother always told me, be (Dm6)careful who you love,
And be (GM7)careful what you do, `cause the (F#7)lie becomes the truth, hey
(Bm7) Billie Jean is not my lover,
She's just a girl who claims that I am the (Em9)one
But the kid is not my (Bm7)son
She says I am the (Em9)one,
But the kid is not my (Bm7)son
(Dm6) For forty days and forty nights, law was on her side
But who can stand when she`s in demand,
Her scenes and (Em9) plans
`Cause we danced on the floor in the (Dm6) round.
So take my strong advice: (Em9) Just remember to always think (Dm6) twice
(Dm6)She told my baby we danced till three, and she looked at me,
Then showed a photo. My baby cried.
His eyes were like mine (Em9)
Can we dance on the floor in the round? (Dm6)
(Bm7)People always told me, be (Dm6)careful what you do.
And don`t (Bm7) go around breaking young girls' hearts(Dm6).
But you (Bm7)came and stood right by me, just a (Dm6)smell of sweet perfume.
This (GM7)happened much too soon. She (F#7)called me to her room, hey
REF X 2
End on Eleanor Rigby
(E9) I look at all the lonely (Bm7) people (repeat and fade)
(Dm6) She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don`t mind but what do you mean,
I am the (Em9) one
Who will dance on the floor in the (Dm6)round?
She said I am the (Em9)one
Who will dance on the floor in the (Dm6) round?
(Dm6) She told me her name was Billie Jean as she caused a scene.
Then ev`ry head turned with eyes that dreamed
Of being the (Em9) one,
Who will dance on the floor in the (Dm6) round
