Billie Jean Tab

by Michael Jackson


Note: this is my first tab but I think its pretty accurate….pretty simple, moderately fast…listen to the song for timing. Bass comes in after drums.

Main Riff
G-----------------------------------]
D-----------------------------------]	
A---5-0-3-5-3--------------------]
E----------------5-3-5-------------]

Alternate riff
G-------------------------]
D----5-0-3-5-------------]
A------------------5-3-5-]   x2
E--------------------------]

Pre Chorus
G---------------------------------]
D----------------3-x-5-----------]
A—5---5-5—5-----------------]        x3
E------------------------3-3-----]

Through in a bunch of 5’s on the A string for transition

Listen to the song and figure out where each riff goes and when...it should be obvious play transition after every pre chorus and the Alt. Riff is always played x2 and the Pre Chorus is always played x3.
