[Verse 1 - note for mid is C - first fret on B] It's close to [Am7] midnight, and something evil's, lurking in the dark. [D7] Under the [Am7] moonlight, you see a sight, that almost stops your heart. You try to [D7] scream, but terror takes the sound, before you [Am7] make it. You start to [D7] freeze, as horror looks you right between the [Am7] eyes You're para- [Em] lyzed.
[Chorus 1] 'Cos this is; [Am] Thril- [C] ler, ---------- [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; And [D7] no one's gonna save you from the [Dm7] beast about to strike. You know it's; [Am] Thril- [C] ler, ------------ [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; You're [D7] fighting for your life, inside a (delay chords until lyric) [F7] killer, [D7] Thriller, to [Am7] - night
[Interlude] [Am7]
[Verse 2] You hear the [Am7] door slam, and realise there's nowhere left to run. [D7] You feel the [Am7] cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun. You close your [D7] eyes, and hope that this is just imagi- [Am7] nation. But all the [D7] while, you hear the creature creepin' up be- [Am7] hind You're out of [Em] time.
[Chorus 2] 'Cos this is; [Am] Thril- [C] ler, ---------- [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; There [D7] ain't no second chance to kill the [Dm7] thing with forty eyes, girl. [Am] Thril- [C] ler, ------------ [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; You're [D7] fighting for your life, inside a [F7] killer, [D7] Thriller, [Am7] to-night.
[Bridge 1 - Play chords pretty straight ] [D7] Night creatures call and the [D7] dead start to walk in their [Fmaj7] masquerade. [G] [Am7] There's no escapin' the [Am7] jaws of the alien, this [Em7b5-022333] time; ---------- [Fmaj7] This is the end of your [E7sus4-020200] life. [E7]
[Verse 3] [Am7] They're out to get you; there's demons closing in on every side. [D7] They will pos- [Am7] sess you; unless you change the number on your dial. Now is the [D7] time, for you and I to cuddle close to- [Am7] gether. All through the [D7] night, I'll save you from the terror on the [Am7] screen; I'll make you [Em] see...
[Chorus 3] That this is; [Am] Thril- [C] ler, [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; 'Cos [D7] I can thrill you more than any [Dm7] ghost would dare try. [Am] Thril- [C] ler, [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; So [D7] let me hold you tight, and share a [F7] killer, [D7] Thriller, [Am7] to-night.
[Chorus 4] That this is; [Am] Thril- [C] ler, [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; 'Cos [D7] I can thrill you more than any [Dm7] ghost would dare try. [Am] Thril- [C] ler, [C] Thril- [D] ler [Am] Night; So [D7] let me hold you tight, and share a [F7] killer, [D7] thriller, [Am7] tonight
