ABBA - Waterloo - Live at the Eurovision Song Contest, Brighton, England (1974) chords
Start Jamming...
[G] And we move now across into Sweden, the [C] largest of the Scandinavian countries.
And although [G] we're looking at streets, it's a country full of mountains, [C] lakes and forests.
And of course it's full of blonde Vikings.
And [Dm] this is one of the reasons why [G] it's good for pictures.
These are [C] the Abba group, [Em] born
[G] Frida, [C] Anna, [Am] who's just beside her with the long [Em] blonde hair, [F]
and [C] Benny.
[G]
If you can work that out, that's why they're called Abba, because in fact it's Benny [C] born Annie Fried [Am] and Anna.
[Em] They made [F] their first record in 1972.
[F#] And [G] if all the judges were men, which they're not, I'm sure this group would get a lot of votes.
You'll [N] see why in a minute.
The song is called
Oh, and it's Napoleon!
Napoleon, no wonder the song is called Waterloo.
This is Sven-Olaf Waldorf, who's really entered into the spirit of it all, dressed as Napoleon.
Waiting for Waterloo by Abba for Sweden.
[D] Watch this one.

On stage performance.
Sweden, they've never won it, but they've surely got to be up amongst the reckoning with that one.
It's certainly gone down well here inside the Dome in Brighton.
