This could be the day I've waited for all my life
                   D
And it's coming true
                  B        D                    E
This could be the day I've waited for all my life
                  B
And it looks like you

Bells of fire hissing through
    A
The dark and tropical night
                     E      B
Thrown by Nubian slaves

B                            D                    E            D
This could be the night I've waited for all my frumpy little life
                  B       D                  E
This could be the night I cut a malignant growth
                 B
With a steel knife

B
Tongues of fire hissing through
    A
The dark and tropical night
                  E
Thrown by Nubian slaves

Verse:
E                    B       D                    E
This could be the train I've waited for all my life
                    D
Coming 'round the bend
                     B       D                     E
This could be the chain that fettered me all my life
             B
Coming to an end

  D      A         E
I always bowed and curtsied
  D        A         E
I held the candle high
      D            A        E
And I blessed your valuable feet
             B
As they went by

B
Tongues of fire hissing through
    A
The dark and tropical night
                      E
Thrown by Nubian slaves

B E B E B E
