Verse
Bb Dm Gm7
I hear the drums echoing tonight
Bb Eb F Gm7 Ab Cm
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversa --tion
Bb Dm Gm7
She's coming in, twelve-thirty flight
Bb Eb Ab Gm7 Ab Cm
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salva--tion
Bm Dm Gm7
I stopped an old man along the way
Bm Ab Fm Gm7 Ab Cm
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melo-dies
Bm Dm Gm7
He turned to me as if to say
Gm Ab Cm
Hurry boy its waiting there for you
Chorus
Fm Db Ab Eb
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Fm Db Ab Eb
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
Fm Db Ab Eb
I bless the rains down in Afri-ca
Fm Db Ab Cm Eb Fm Ab Cm
Gonna take some time to do the things we never haaaaaaaaaave
Verse
Bb Db Gm
The wild dogs cry out in the night
Bm Ab Fm Gm Ab Cm
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
Bm Dm Gm
I know that I must do what's right
Bm Ab Fm Gm7 Ab Cm
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Seren-geti
Bm Dm Gm7
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Gm Ab Cm
Frightened of this thing that I've become
Chorus
Fm Db Ab Eb
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Fm Db Ab Eb
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in Afri-ca
Fm Db Ab Cm Eb Fm Ab Cm
Gonna take some time to do the things we never haaaaaaaaaave
