Standard (EADGBE)
Chorus
I hear the drums echoing tonight
( )
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
( )
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
( )
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, ''Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you''
(this is me agreeing with adam... kinda)
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Afr--ica
Em C G Bm D Em G Bm <--kinda tricky
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had Listen & you'll
know what I
* * mean
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Afr--ica
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Afr--ica
I passed some rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa,
I passed some rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
