Thank you for the Music
ABBA
Intro:
E Gdim F#m7 B7
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
So I say
E F#m B7 E <Chorus>
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
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 except:
B7 D
For giving it to me
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 except:
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

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ABBA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
