Michael Jackson – Billie Jean Acoustic chords

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. If you have any
problems with the tab just listen to the song then play. And when you've
made your final judgement, please rate and/or leave a comment.

(The rhythm of the song is based off the baseline. So just try and mimic
it. For the verses and choruses, I throw in some palm mutes to make it more interesting.)

Intro:

Em (I counted about 24 measures of Em. Feel free to shorten if you want.) 

Verse 1:

Em      She was more like a beauty queen, from a movie scene,

                                    Em   Who will dance on the floor, in the round.
                   Am                                       EmShe said; I am the one, who will dance on the floor, in the round.

Em          She told me her name was Billie Jean, as she caused a scene.
                                                            AmThen every head turned, with eyes that dreamed of being the one,
                                    EmWho will dance on the floor, in the round.

Interlude:

Em 2xs

C                          EmPeople always told me; be careful what you do;
          C                               EmAnd don't go around breaking young girl's hearts.
    C                         EmAnd mother always told me; be careful of who you love;

                                            AmShe's just a girl who, claims that I am the one.
                      Em But the kid is not my son.

Verse 3:

Em   For forty days and forty nights, the law was on her side.
                                                         AmBut who can stand, when she's in demand, her schemes and plans?
                                    Em    'Cos we danced on the floor, in the round.
Em                                                     So take my strong advice; just remember to always think twice.
 Em(Do think twice).

Em           She told my baby we'd danced 'till three, then she looked a me,
                                                         AmThen showed a photo; my baby cried; his eyes looked like mine.
                                 Em     Go on dance on the floor, in the round, baby.

          C                               EmAnd don't go around breaking young girl's hearts.
    C                                    EmShe came and stood right by me; then the smell of sweet perfume.
     C                           B7This happened much too soon; she called me to her room.

(Fade Out)

And that should be that for Billie Jean by the late Michael Jackson. If it
doesn't sound perfect then it sounds pretty close to it. And once again,
