I wasn't an especially big fan of ABBA in the 70's, although I did love their song, "SOS." But I've come to have a greater appreciation for certain groups from the past, like ABBA and the Bee Gees, I guess partially because of the nostalgia factor, but also a greater appreciation for how these singers and musicians created such great music.
[A] Friday night and the lights are [D] low
[A] looking out for a place to [F#m] go
[E] Where they play the right [Esus4] music
[E] Getting in the [Esus4] swing
You’ve come to [F#m] look for a king
[A] Anybody could be that [D] guy
[A] Night is young and the music’s [F#m] high
[E] With a bit of rock [Esus4] music
[E] Everything is [Esus4] fine
You’re in the [F#m] mood for a dance
and when you [Bm] get the cha-[E]-ance
chorus:
You are the [A] dancing queen
[D] Young and sweet, only [A] seventeen… [D]
[A] Dancing Queen, [D] feel the beat from
the [A] tambou[E] rine, oh [D] yeah [A]
[E] You can dance, [Db7] you can jive
[F#m] Having the time of your [B7] life
Oooh, [D] see that girl, [Bm7] watch that scene
Diggin’ the [A] dancing queen [ D A D ]
[A] You’re a teaser, you turn ‘em [D] on
[A] Leave ‘em burning and then you’re [F#m] gone
[E] Looking out for a[Esus4]nother
[E] Anyone will [Esus4] do
You’re in the [F#m] mood for a dance
and when you [Bm] get the [E] chance
(chorus)
