C#m7 F#7It's close to midnight, and something evil's, lurking in the dark.
C#m7Under the moonlight, you see a sight, that almost stops your heart.
F#7 C#m7You try to scream, but terror takes the sound, before you make it.
F#7 C#m7You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes;
G#mYou're para-lyzed.
C#m E E F# C#m'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 F#m7And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike.
C#m E E F# C#mYou know it's; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 A7 F#7 C#m7You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.
C#m7
C#m7 F#7You hear the door slam, and realise there's nowhere left to run.
C#m7You feel the cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun.
F#7 C#m7You close your eyes, and hope that this is just imagi-nation.
F#7 C#m7But all the while, you hear the creature creepin' up be-hind;
G#mYou're out of time.
C#m E E F# C#m'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 F#m7There 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#m7You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.
F#7 Amaj7 B Night creatures call and the dead start to walk in their masquerade.
C#m7 C#m7/B A#m7b5 There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien, this time;
A6 G#7sus4 G#7 This is the end of your life.
C#m7 F#7 They're out to get you; there's demons closing in on every side.
C#m7They will pos-sess you; unless you change the number on your dial.
F#7 C#m7Now is the time, for you and I to cuddle close to-gether.
F#7 C#m7All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen;
G#mI'll make you see...
C#m E E F# C#mThat 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 A7So let me hold you tight, and share a killer,
F#7 A/B C#m7 E Diller, chiller, Thriller here to-night.

Spoken
C#m7 A F#sus4 F# Darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is close at hand.
C#m7 A F#sus4 F# Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorise your neighbourhood.
C#m7 A F#sus4 F# And whosoever shall be found, without the soul for getting down,
C#m7 A F#sus4 F#Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell and rot inside a corpse's shell.

C#m7 A
F#sus4 F# C#m7The foulest stench is in the air; the funk of forty thousand years,
A F#sus4 F#And grizzy ghouls from every tomb, are closing in to seal your doom.
C#m7 A F#sus4 F# And though you fight to stay alive; your body starts to shiver,
C#m7 A F#sus4 F#For no mere mortal can resist, the evil of The Thriller
