Thriller - Michael Jackson
Intro:
[Bass Riff x 2] [+ Ukes x 2]
[Dm] It's close to midnight and something evil's lurking in the dark
[Dm] Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to [Gm] scream but terror takes the sound before you [Dm] make it
You start to [Gm] freeze as horror looks you right between the [Dm] eyes
You're paralyzed [A7]
|Chorus 1:
|'Cause this is [Dm] thriller, thriller night
|And [Gm] no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike
|You know it's [Dm] thriller, thriller night
|[Gm] You're fighting for your life inside a [Bb] killer, [A7] thriller [Dm] tonight
Bass Riff x2 :
[Dm] You hear the door slam and realize there's nowhere left to run
[Dm] You feel the cold hand and wonder if you'll ever see the sun
You close your [Gm] eyes and hope that this is just [Dm] imagination, (girl)
But all the [Gm] while you hear the creature creeping up [Dm] behind
You're out of time [A7]
|Chorus 2:
|'Cause this is [Dm] thriller, thriller night
|[Gm] There ain't no second chance against the thing with forty eyes, (girl)
|[Dm] Thriller, thriller night
|[Gm] You're fighting for your life inside a [Bb] killer, [A7] thriller
[Bridge]
[Dm] Night creatures calling, the dead start to walk in their [Gm] masquerade
[Dm] There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time [Gm],
[A7] This* is the end of your [Dm] life
[Dm] They're out to get you, there's demons closing in on every side
[Dm] They will possess you unless you change that number on your dial
Now is the [Gm] time for you and I to cuddle close [Dm] together, (yeah)
All through the [Gm] night I'll save you from the terror on the [Dm] screen
I'll make you [A7] see
|Chorus 3:
|That this is [Dm] thriller, thriller night
|[Gm] Girl, I can thrill you more than any ghost would ever dare try
|[Dm] Thriller (Ooo Hoo!), thriller night
|[Gm] So let me hold you tight and share a [Bb] killer, [A7] thriller, ow!
[Dm] [Dm] [Dm] [Dm]
(I'm gonna thrill ya tonight)
Dm
[Darkness falls across the land.....the midnight hour is close at hand]
Dm
[Creatures crawl in search of blood...to terrorize your neighbourhood]
Dm
[And whosoever shall be found...without the soul called getting down]
Dm
[Must stand and face the hounds of Hell....and rot inside a corpses shell]
Dm
[The foulest stench is in the air....the funk of forty thousand years]
Dm
[And grizzly ghouls from every tomb....are closing in to seal your doom]
Dm
[And though you fight to stay alive....your body starts to shiver]
Dm
[For no mere mortal can resist....the evil of the THRILLER]
