It's close to midnight, and something evil's, lurking in the dark.

Under the moonlight, you see a sight, that almost stops your heart.
      A7                       Em7
You try to scream, but terror takes the sound, before you make it
       A7                      Em7
You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes;
      Bm
You're para-lyzed.

You hear the door slam, and realise there's nowhere left to run.
       Em7                     A
You feel the cold hand, and wonder if you'll ever see the sun.
        A7                   Em7
You close your eyes, and hope that this is just imagi-nation.
      A7                     Em7
But all the while, you hear the creature creepin' up be-hind;
       Bm
You're out of time.

 Night creatures call and the dead start to walk in their masquerade.
Em7                       C#m7
 There's no escapin' the jaws of the alien, this time;
CM7           B7sus4 B7
 This is the end of your life.

Verse 3:
Em7                             A7
 They're out to get you; there's demons closing in on every side.
       Em7                      A
They will pos-sess you; unless you change the number on your dial.
      A7                   Em7
Now is the time, for you and I to cuddle close to-gether.
        A7                     Em7
All through the night, I'll save you from the terror on the screen;
       Bm
I'll make you see...

Chorus 3:

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

'Cos I can thrill you more than any ghost would dare try.
 Em  G  G   A  Em
 Thril-ler, Thril-ler Night;
  A7                 C7
So let me hold you tight, and share a killer,

 ...I'm gonna thrill you tonight.

Spoken:
Em7       C        A          A7
 Darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is close at hand.
Em7         C        A         A7
 Creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorise your neighbourhood.
Em7           C         A        A7
 And whosoever shall be found, without the soul for getting down,
   Em7        C         A           A7
Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell and rot inside a corpse's shell

Em7 C A A7

Em7        C         A           A7
The foulest stench is in the air; the funk of forty thousand years,
Em7          C        A       A7
And grizzy ghouls from every tomb, are closing in to seal your doom.
Em7          C       A          A7
 And though you fight to stay alive; your body starts to shiver,
  Em7      C        A      A7
For no mere mortal can resist, the evil of The Thriller

{Manic laughter to end}
