^{Key: :[G] (w: Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Stig Anderson)}

VERSE 1:
[G] My my, at [A/G] Waterloo
Nap-[D/F#]-oleon [C/E] did sur-[D]-render
Oh [G] yeah, and [A/G] I have met my
[D/F#] destin-[C/E]-y in [D] quite a similar [Em] way

PRE-CHORUS 1:
The [Em] history book on the shelf
is [A7] always repeating [D] itself [D/C] [D/B] [D/A]

CHORUS:
[G] Waterloo, I was defeated, you [C] won the war
[D] Waterloo, promise to love you for-[G]-ever more [D]
[G] Waterloo, couldn't escape if I [C] wanted to
[D] Waterloo, knowing my fate is to [G] be with you
[/G] Wow, [/F#] wow, [/E] wow, [/D] wow
[D] Waterloo, finally facing my [G] Waterloo

VERSE 2:
[G] My, my, I [A/G] tried to hold you
[D/F#] back but [C/E] you were [D] stronger
Oh [G] yeah, and [A/G] now it seems my [D/F#] only
[C/E] chance is [D] giving up the [Em] fight

PRE-CHORUS 2:
So [Em] how could I ever refuse
I [A7] feel like I win when I [D] lose [D/C] [D/B] [D/A]
