[Intro]
G Bm (x4)
 
[Verse 1]
A                C#m        F#m
I hear the drums echoing tonight
F#m/E          G                Bm7         F#m  G    Bm
She hears only whispers of some quiet conversa - tion
A            C#m               F#m
She's coming in, twelve thirty flight
    F#m/E           G                    Bm7                F#m  G    Bm
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me toward salva - tion
A            C#m               F#m
I stopped an old man along the way
F#m/E               G             Bm7              F#m    G    Bm
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melo - dies
A            C#m         F#m   F#m/E            G                      Bm
He turned to me as if to say - “Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you”
 
[Chorus]
Em           C               G        D
Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Em                     C              G               D
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
Em          C             G   D
I bless the rains down in Africa
Em              C              G               Bm7  D  Em  D
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...
    G Bm
Ooo Ooo
    G Bm
 
[Verse 2]
A             C#m            F#m
The wild dogs cry out in the night
F#m/E                 G                Bm7      F#m   G  Bm
As they grow restless longing for some solitary compa-ny
A           C#m              F#m
I know that I must do what's right
F#m/E                  G           Bm7              F#m       G  Bm
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Ser - engeti
A         C#m                F#m
I seek to cure what's deep inside
F#m/E              G                      Bm
Frightened of this thing that I've become
 
[Chorus]
Em           C               G        D
Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Em                     C              G               D
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
Em          C              G      D
I bless the rains down in  Africa
Em              C              G               Bm7  D  Em  D
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...

Ooo Ooo

Em                     C              G               D
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in Africa
Em          C             G      D
