Billie Jean - Cover by: ghanlon

Cover by: ghanlon
Attention, in case you can't figure it out quickly by yourself. This is not Chris Cornell Singing. It's me.

Billie Jean
Chris Cornell's arrangement


Intro:
Em (Top 4 strings picked slowly down then up) x 4

Verse 1:
Em
She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene Am
I said don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one Em
Who will dance on the floor in the round Am Em
She said I am the one, who will dance on the floor in the round

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


Bridge:
C Em
People always told me be careful of what you do C Em
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts C Em
And mother always told me be careful of who you love C B7
And be careful of what you do before the lie becomes the truth

Chorus:
Em Am Em Gadd9/E Em
Billie Jean is not my lover Am Em Am Bmadd11/A
She's just a girl who says that I am the one Gadd11/A Bm7/A Em
But the kid is not my son Am
She says I am the one Gadd11/A Bm7/A Em
But the kid is not my son


Verse 2:
Em
For forty days and for forty nights. The law was on her side. Am
But who can stand when she's in demand. Her schemes and plans. Em
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round Am Em
So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
(Do think twice)

Verse 3:
Em
She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at me Am
Then showed a photo my baby cried his eyes were like mine Em
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round

Bridge:
C Em
People always told me be careful of what you do C Em
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts C Em
Then she stood right by me. The smell of sweet perfume. C B7
This happened much too soon. She called me to her room.

Chorus:
Em Am Em Gadd9/E Em
Billie Jean is not my lover Am Em Am Bmadd11/A
She's just a girl who says that I am the one Gadd11/A Bm7/A Em
But the kid is not my son Am
She says I am the one Gadd11/A Bm7/A Em
But the kid is not my son Am Em
So take my strong advice, remember to always think twice
(Do think twice)

This is amazing. It sounds like a completely different song, a completely different genre. You did well!

[acs100289]

good job bro...dont worry about that dude down there... he just doesnt know how to work youtube very well. its not your fault. anyway, enjoyed your other videos as well, keep on proclaiming his name!!

[YuliaGM]

pretty cool :-) Never thought "billie Jean" could sound country. But it kind of works.

[clramireo]

it says it's a cover, but I think you have heard this song before by a really famous pop singer(ring any bells?), so Chris Cornell version is a cover also. I noticed that you change the tag, so I guess that less people will be confused in the future, and you won't have to argue in such an entertaining way anymore with another DUDE. About my videos, my concerts are in private and I don't need fame ad fortune to be happy, so you won't be seen any of my performances on youtube in the near future...

[ghanlon]

your killing me DUDE. lol

Don't you see cove in the title and again on the tag inside the video it clearly say cover by ghanlon. And for your record al of the videos on my page are by me!, Where are your?

[clramireo]

no, you certainly don't look like Chris. But in the menu of videos, the caption of your video(a guy with a guitar not showing his face in a 2 inches square)it's very easy to mistake you with anyone.

My point is you should say "this is MY version of Chris Cornell" song, otherwise your are misleading people like me and taking advantages of that(the only explanation for your video to have 909 views). Using a famous rockstar's name to increase your counter views...not cool at all DUDE.
