Intro: C#m7

F#7Itʼs close to C#m7midnight
And C#m7something evilʼs, lurking in the dark.
F#7Under the C#m7moonlight
You C#m7see a sight, that almost stops your heart.

You try to F#7scream, but C#m7terror takes the sound
Before you C#m7make it.
You start to F#7freeze, as C#m7horror looks you right between
C#m7The eyes; Youʼre para-lyzed.

Chorus:
    ʼCos this is; C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    And F#7no oneʼs gonna save you
    From the F#m7beast about to strike.
    You know itʼs; C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    Youʼre F#7fighting for your life
    Inside a F#m7killer, Thriller, C#m7to-night.

F#7You hear the C#m7door slam
And C#m7realise thereʼs nowhere left to run.
F#7You feel the C#m7cold hand
And C#m7wonder if youʼll ever see the sun.

You close your F#7eyes, and C#m7hope that this
Is just imagi-C#m7nation.
But all the F#7while, you C#m7hear the creature creepinʼ up be-hind;
C#m7Youʼre out of time.

Chorus:
    ʼCos this is; C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    There F#7ainʼt no second chance
    To kill the F#m7thing with forty eyes, girl.
    C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    Youʼre F#7fighting for your life,
    Inside a F#m7killer, Thriller, C#m7to-night.

Bridge:
    F#7Night creatures call
    and the dead start to walk in their A7masquerade.
    C#m7Thereʼs no escapinʼ
    the jaws of the alien, this A7time;

    This is the end of your G#7life.

F#7Theyʼre out to C#m7get you;
thereʼs C#m7demons closing in on every side.
F#7They will pos-C#m7sess you;
unC#m7less you change the number on your dial.

Now is the F#7time,
for you and I to cuddle close C#m7to-gether.
All through the F#7night,
Iʼll save you from the terror on the C#m7screen;

Iʼll make you see..

Chorus:
    That this is; C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    ʼCos F#7I can thrill you more
    than any F#m7ghost would dare try.
    C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    So F#7let me hold you tight,
    And share a F#m7killer, Diller, chiller,
    Thriller here C#m7to-night.


    That this is; C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    ʼCos F#7I can thrill you more
    than any F#m7ghost would dare try.
    C#m7Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
    So F#7let me hold you tight,
    and share a F#m7killer, thriller, ow!C#m7    

Bridge:
    C#m7 ...Iʼm gonna thrill you tonight.

Outro:
    C#m7Darkness falls across the land,
the midnight hour is close at hand.
Creatures crawl in search of blood,
to terrorise your neighbourhood.
And whosoever shall be found,
without the soul for getting down,
Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell
and rot inside a corpseʼs shell.

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