INTRO:
G Bm
A C#m F#m I hear the drums echoing tonight A G Bm F#m G Bm She hears only whispers of some quiet conversations A C#m F#m She's coming in twelve-thirty flight A G Bm F#m G Bm The moonlit winds reflect the stars that guide me toward salvation A C#m F#m I stopped an old man along the way A G Bm F#m G Bm Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies A C#m F#m G Bm He turned to me as if to say hurry boy it's waiting there for you
CHORUS:
Em C G D It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you Em C G D There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do Em C G D I bless the rains down in Africa Em C G Bm D Em G Bm Gonna take some time to do the things we never had... G Bm Ooo Ooo
G Bm
VERSE:
A C#m F#m The wild dogs cry out in the night A G Bm F#m G Bm As they grow restless longing for some solitary company A C#m F#m I know that I must do what's right A G Bm F#m G Bm Sure as Kilimangiaro rises like Olympus above the Serangetti A C#m F#m I seek to cure what's deep inside G Bm Frightened of this thing that I've become
CHORUS:
Em C G D It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you Em C G D There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do Em C G D I bless the rains down in Africa Em C G Bm D Em G Bm Gonna take some time to do the things we never had... G Bm Ooo Ooo
