Verse:
Bb majorBb        DmDm    Gm7Gm7
I hear the drums echoing tonight
  Bb majorBb       Eb MajorEb        FF     Gm7Gm7   AbAb  C minorCm
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversa --tion
Bb majorBb      DmDm         Gm7Gm7
 She’s coming in, twelve-thirty flight
  Bb majorBb       Eb MajorEb          AbAb        Gm7Gm7    AbAb   C minorCm
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salva--tion
B minorBm      DmDm       Gm7Gm7
I stopped an old man along the way
B minorBm         AbAb       F minorFm       Gm7Gm7  AbAb  C minorCm
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melo-dies
B minorBm      DmDm     Gm7Gm7
He turned to me as if to say
G minorGm      AbAb       C minorCm
Hurry boy its waiting there for you

Chorus:
   F minorFm      DbDb        AbAb    Eb MajorEb
It’s gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
    F minorFm       DbDb        AbAb       Eb MajorEb
There’s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
F minorFm     DbDb      AbAb  Eb MajorEb
I bless the rains down in Afri-ca
F minorFm       DbDb       AbAb       C minorCm Eb MajorEb F minorFm AbAb  C minorCm
Gonna take some time to do the things we never haaaaaaaaaave


Verse:
Bb majorBb      DbDb       G minorGm
The wild dogs cry out in the night
  B minorBm         AbAb        F minorFm    G minorGm  AbAb  C minorCm
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
 B minorBm     DmDm       G minorGm
I know that I must do what’s right
 B minorBm     AbAb           F minorFm        Gm7Gm7  AbAb  C minorCm
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Seren-geti
 B minorBm    DmDm       Gm7Gm7
I seek to cure what’s deep inside
G minorGm         AbAb        C minorCm
Frightened of this thing that I’ve become


Chorus:
   F minorFm      DbDb        AbAb    Eb MajorEb
It’s gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
    F minorFm       DbDb        AbAb       Eb MajorEb
There’s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
F minorFm     DbDb      AbAb  Eb MajorEb
I bless the rains down in Afri-ca
F minorFm       DbDb       AbAb       C minorCm Eb MajorEb F minorFm AbAb  C minorCm
Gonna take some time to do the things we never haaaaaaaaaave


Outro:
F minorFm     DbDb      AbAb  Eb MajorEb
I bless the rains down in Afri-ca
