F#m7 B7It's close to midnight, and something evil's, lurking in the dark.
F#m7Under the moonlight, you see a sight, that almost stops your heart.
B7 F#m7You try to scream, but terror takes the sound, before you make it.
B7 F#m7You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes;
C#mYou're para-lyzed.
F#m A A B F#m'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
B7 Bm7And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike.
F#m A A B F#mYou know it's; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
B7 D7 B7 F#m7You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.
F#m7
F#m7 B7You hear the door slam, and realise there's nowhere left to run.
F#m7You feel the cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun.
B7 F#m7You close your eyes, and hope that this is just imagi-nation.
B7 F#m7But all the while, you hear the creature creepin' up be-hind;
C#mYou're out of time.
F#m A A B F#m'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
B7 Bm7There ain't no second chance to kill the thing with forty eyes, girl.
F#m A A B F#m Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
B7 D7 B7 F#m7You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.
B7 Dmaj7 E Night creatures call and the dead start to walk in their masquerade.
F#m7 F#m7/E D#m7b5 There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien, this time;
D6 C#7sus4 C#7 This is the end of your life.
F#m7 B7 They're out to get you; there's demons closing in on every side.
F#m7They will pos-sess you; unless you change the number on your dial.
B7 F#m7Now is the time, for you and I to cuddle close to-gether.
B7 F#m7All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen;
C#mI'll make you see...
F#m A A B F#mThat this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
B7 Bm7'Cos I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare try.
F#m A A B F#m Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
B7 D7So let me hold you tight, and share a killer,
B7 D/E F#m7 A Diller, chiller, Thriller here to-night.
F#m A A B F#mThat this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

Spoken
F#m7 D Bsus4 B Darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is close at hand.
F#m7 D Bsus4 B Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorise your neighbourhood.
F#m7 D Bsus4 B And whosoever shall be found, without the soul for getting down,
F#m7 D Bsus4 BMust stand and face the Hounds of Hell and rot inside a corpse's shell.

F#m7 D
Bsus4 B F#m7The foulest stench is in the air; the funk of forty thousand years,
D Bsus4 BAnd grizzy ghouls from every tomb, are closing in to seal your doom.
F#m7 D Bsus4 B And though you fight to stay alive; your body starts to shiver,
F#m7 D Bsus4 BFor no mere mortal can resist, the evil of The Thriller
