[Intro]

A | G#m | C#m | A | G#m | C#m | A | G#m | C#m | A | G#m | C#m 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
B                 D#m7            G#m7
 I hear the drums echoing tonight,
    B               A          E/F#        G#m7 A   G#m C#m
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversa__tion.
B               D#m7                    G#m7
 She's coming in    twelvethirty flight,
    B             A                 E/F#                G#m7 A   G#m C#m
Her moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salva__tion.
B                D#m7                  G#m7
 I stopped an old    man along the way,
B                A                E/F#           G#m7  A    G#m C#m
Hoping to find some old forgotten words    or ancient me  lodies.
B               D#m7            G#m7
 He turned to me    as if to say

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
                  A                     G#m C#m F#m                  D              
"Hurry, boy, it's waiting there for you.           It's gonna take a lot to drag me 
 A            E
away from you,
F#m                       D                  A              E
   There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do,
F#m                 D        A      E
   I bless the rains down in Africa.
F#m                    D          A               C#m E F#m E
   Gonna take some time to do the things we never had.

[Verse 2]
---------------------
B              D#m7                 G#m7
 The wild dogs cry out in the night,
        B          A              E/F#     G#m7 A  G#m C#m
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company.
B             D#m7                    G#m7
 I know that I    must do what's right
        B        A         E/F#             G#m7   A  G#m C#m
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti.
B              D#m7              G#m7
 I seek to cure    what's deep inside.

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
                   A                      G#m C#m F#m                  D              
Frightened of this thing that I've become.           It's gonna take a lot to drag me 
 A            E
away from you,
F#m                       D                  A              E
   There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do,
F#m                 D        A      E
   I bless the rains down in Africa.
F#m                    D          A               C#m E F#m E
   Gonna take some time to do the things we never had.
