B                   Ebm     Abm
I hear the drums echoin tonight
B               A             Dbm         Abm   A  Dbm
She has only whispers of some quiet conversa - tion
B                Ebm           Abm          B
She's coming in twelve thirthy flight   the moolight winds
     A                      Dbm7              Abm   A  Dbm
     Reflect the stars that guide me toward salva-tion
B              Ebm             Abm
I stopped an old man along the way
B                   A             Dbm              Abm   A Dbm
Hoping to find some old forgotten words of ancient melo-dies
B              Eb7       Abm                 A                Dbm
He turned to me as if to say  hurry boy it's waiting there for you
     Gbm           D               A       E
     Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
     Gbm                     D             A             E
     There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do       MTM
     Gbm          D              A   E
     I bless the rains down in   Africa
     Gbm             D               A        Dbm E Gbm  A Dbm
     Gonna take some time to do the things we never  had

B                 Ebm         Abm
The wild dogs cry out in the night
B            A                    Dbm            Abm   A  Dbm
As they grow restless longing for some solitary compa-ny
B          Ebm               Abm
I know that I must do what's right
B                     A          Dbm                  Abm   A  Dbm
Sure as kilimangiaro rises like olimpus above the seranget-ti
     B         Eb7               Abm
     I seek to cure what's deep inside
Abm                 A               Dbm
Frightened of this thing that I've become
     Gbm         D             A       E
     Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
     Gbm                   D             A             E
     There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
     Gbm        D             A   E
     I bless the rains down in   Africa
