Verse 1:
C#m7 F#7
It's close to midnight, and something evil's, lurking in the dark.
C#m7
Under the moonlight, you see a sight, that almost stops your heart.
F#7 C#m7
You try to scream, but terror takes the sound, before you make it.
F#7 C#m7
You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes;
G#m
You're para-lyzed.
Chorus 1:
C#m E E F# C#m
'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 F#m7
And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike.
C#m E E F# C#m
You know it's; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 A7 F#7 (C#m7)
You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.
Interlude:
C#m7
Verse 2:
C#m7 F#7
You hear the door slam, and realise there's nowhere left to run.
C#m7
You feel the cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun.
F#7 C#m7
You close your eyes, and hope that this is just imagi-nation.
F#7 C#m7
But all the while, you hear the creature creepin' up be-hind;
G#m
You're out of time.
Chorus 2:
C#m E E F# C#m
'Cos this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 F#m7
There 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#m7
You're fighting for your life, inside a killer, Thriller, to-night.
Bridge 1:
F#7 Amaj7 B
Night creatures call and the dead start to walk in their masquerade.
C#m7 G#m7b5
There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien, this time;
Amaj7 G#7sus4 G#7
This is the end of your life.
Verse 3:
C#m7 F#7
They're out to get you; there's demons closing in on every side.
C#m7
They will pos-sess you; unless you change the number on your dial.
F#7 C#m7
Now is the time, for you and I to cuddle close to-gether.
F#7 C#m7
All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen;
G#m
I'll make you see...
Chorus 3:
C#m E E F# C#m
That this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 F#m7
'Cos I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare try.

So let me hold you tight, and share a killer,

Diller, chiller, Thriller here to-night.

That this is; Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;

'Cos I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare try.

Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
F#7 A7 F#7 (C#m7)
So let me hold you tight, and share a killer, thriller, ow!

(Spoken):
C#m7 A B F#*
Darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is close at hand.
C#m7 A B F#*
Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorise your neighbourhood.
C#m7 A B F#*
And whosoever shall be found, without the soul for getting down,
C#m7 A B F#*
Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell and rot inside a corpse's shell.
(with Vocal Ad-libs):
C#m7 A, B F#* (x3), C#m7 A
B F#* C#m7
The foulest stench is in the air; the funk of forty thousand years,
A B F#*
And grizzy ghouls from every tomb, are closing in to seal your doom.
C#m7 A B F#*
And though you fight to stay alive; your body starts to shiver,
C#m7 A B F#*
For no mere mortal can resist, the evil of The Thriller...
