Waterloo by ABBA: Guitar, Bass & Songwriting Insights
"Waterloo" by ABBA is a Eurovision-winning hit that features a driving beat and infectious melody. Benny Andersson's piano riff sets the energetic tone, while Björn Ulvaeus and Agnetha Fältskog's vocal harmonies soar over the chorus. The song's success catapulted ABBA to international fame and solidified their signature sound. The guitar work by Janne Schaffer adds a punchy edge to the track, complementing the band's pop sensibilities.Waterloo BASS TAB ABBA While tabbing I realized you most likely need a five string to play this. That being said, here it is drop D and on four strings. Big jumps. But fun jumps. Also, not tabbed with exact timing so listen for precise note placement.
