THRILLER by Michael Jackson

*from 'Thriller' (1982)*



[Intro]

C#m7  F#7  G#aug

C#m  E  E  F#  C#m

C#m7  F#7 x2



[Verse 1]

              C#m7                                                F#7

It's close to midnight, and something evil's, lurking in the dark.

          C#m7

Under the moonlight, you see a sight, that almost stops your heart.

           F#7                                            C#m7

You try to scream, but terror takes the sound, before you make it.

             F#7                                           C#m7

You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes;

            G#m

You're para-lyzed.



[Chorus 1]

              C#m   E    E     F#  C#m

'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

    F#7                              F#m7

And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike.

               C#m   E    E     F#  C#m

You know it's; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

       F#7                              A7      F#7         (C#m7)

You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.



[Interlude]

C#m7



[Verse 2]

             C#m7                                               F#7

You hear the door slam, and realise there's nowhere left to run.

             C#m7

You feel the cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun.

               F#7                                    C#m7

You close your eyes, and hope that this is just imagi-nation.

            F#7                                         C#m7

But all the while, you hear the creature creepin' up be-hind;

              G#m

You're out of time.



[Chorus 2]

              C#m   E    E     F#  C#m

'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

      F#7                                F#m7

There ain't no second chance to kill the thing with forty eyes, girl.

C#m    E    E     F#  C#m

 Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

       F#7                              A7      F#7       C#m7

You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.



[Bridge 1]

F#7                                                       Amaj7      B

 Night creatures call and the dead start to walk in their masquerade.

C#m7                                             G#m7b5

 There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien, this time;

Amaj7                    G#7sus4  G#7

 This is the end of your life.



[Verse 3]

C#m7                                                             F#7

 They're out to get you; there's demons closing in on every side.

              C#m7

They will pos-sess you; unless you change the number on your dial.

           F#7                                    C#m7

Now is the time, for you and I to cuddle close to-gether.

                F#7                                         C#m7

All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen;

              G#m

I'll make you see...



[Chorus 3]

              C#m   E    E     F#  C#m

That this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

     F#7                            F#m7

'Cos I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare try.

C#m    E    E     F#  C#m

 Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

   F#7                                A7

So let me hold you tight, and share a killer,

F#7      A/B     C#m7              E

 Diller, chiller, Thriller here to-night.



[Chorus 4]

              C#m   E    E     F#  C#m

That this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

     F#7                            F#m7

'Cos I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare try.

C#m    E    E     F#  C#m

 Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

   F#7                                A7      F#7      (C#m7)

So let me hold you tight, and share a killer, thriller, ow!



[Break]

C#m7

 ...I'm gonna thrill you tonight.



(Vincent Price)



[Spoken]

C#m7      A                     B                     F#*

 Darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is close at hand.

C#m7                A               B                  F#*

 Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorise your neighbourhood.

C#m7                    A                  B                F#*

 And whosoever shall be found, without the soul for getting down,

     C#m7                              A       B                 F#*

Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell and rot inside a corpse's shell.



(with Vocal Ad-libs)

C#m7  A  B  F#* (x3)

C#m7  A



            B                         F#*                    C#m7

The foulest stench is in the air; the funk of forty thousand years,

           A                      B                  F#*

And grizzy ghouls from every tomb, are closing in to seal your doom.

C#m7                  A              B                   F#*

 And though you fight to stay alive; your body starts to shiver,

    C#m7           A               B           F#*

For no mere mortal can resist, the evil of The Thriller
