(By Szehang Lee)

Hello,
this one is by ABBA. It's called "Thank you for the Music". Have fun.

[Intro]
E       Gdim    F#m7    B7

[Verse 1]
E           Gdim        F#m7       B7       E       Bm7   E7
I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore
   A                     C#7                F#m     F#m7  B7  B7b13
If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before
    E                  B
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
       E        E7          A          Am
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
       C#m
I'm so grateful and proud
      F#m        F#m7        B7
All I want is to sing it out loud

[Chorus]
So I say
E                 F#m        B7        E                
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
C#m        C#m7    F#7         B7
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
E                F#m       G#m    C#m7     A
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
                Am
What would life be?
          E         E7             C#
Without a song or a dance what are we?
         F#m               A
So I say thank you for the music
    B7           E      Gdim     F#m7    B7
For giving it to me

[Verse 2]
Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I've often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can?
Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan

[Chorus]
So I say
E                 F#m        B7        E                
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
C#m        C#m7    F#7         B7
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
E                F#m       G#m    C#m7     A
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
                Am
What would life be?
          E         E7             C#
Without a song or a dance what are we?
         F#m               A
So I say thank you for the music
    B7           D
For giving it to me

[Bridge]
Am6          E               Am6              E
I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
        Am6     G#7   C#m   C#m7
I wanna sing it out to everybody
F#m7                     B7
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!

[Chorus]
So I say
E                 F#m        B7        E                
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
C#m        C#m7    F#7         B7
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
E                F#m       G#m    C#m7     A
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
                Am
What would life be?
    B7           E   E7  C#
For giving it to me
         F#m               A
So I say thank you for the music
    B7           E
For giving it to me
