Abba - Don't shut me down

^HbA while ago I heard the sound of children's laughter ^GmNow it's quiet, so I guess they left the park ^CmThis wooden bench is getting harder by the hour ^FThe sun is going down, it's getting ^Hbdark^F7 I ^Hbrealize I'm cold The ^Frain begins to pour As I ^Gmwatch the windows on the second ^Cmfloor ^GmThe lights are on, it's time to go ^CmIt's time at last to let him know^F

^CmI believe it would be fair to say^F7 You look be^Hbwildered And you ^Cmwonder why I'm here today^F7 And so you should, I ^Hbwould When I ^Ebleft I felt I'd had enough ^GmBut in the shape and ^Cmform I ^Ebappear now I have ^Ablearned to cope And ^Eblove and hope is ^Cmwhy I am ^Hbhere now

^CAnd now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah ^AmI'm fired up, don't shut me down ^DmI'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded ^GI'm fired up, I'm hot, don't shut me down^{C G C}I'm not the one you knew ^GI'm now and then combined And I'm ^Amasking you to have an open^F mind^{Fsus F}I'm not the same this time around ^DmI'm fired up, don't shut me ^G7down

^DmWill you leave me standing in the hall^G7 Or let me ^Center? ^DmThe apartment hasn't changed at all^G7 I got to say I'm glad^C Once these ^Frooms were witness to our love ^AmMy tantrums and ^Dmincreasing frustra^Ftion But I ^Hbgo from mad To ^Fnot so bad in ^Dmmy transforma^Ction

A^Dnd now you see another me, I've been reloaded, yeah I^Hm'm fired up, don't shut me down ^EmI'm like a dream within a dream that's been decoded I'm ^Afired up, I'm hot, don't shut me down^{D A} I^D'm not the one you knew ^AI'm now and then combined And I'm ^Hmasking you to have an open mind^G now^{Gsus G}I'm not the same this time around ^EmI'm fired up, don't shut me down^A7
