[Intro]

[Verse]
A C#m F#m7
I hear the drums echoing tonight
A D E F#m7 G Bm
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversa --tion
A C#m F#m7
She's coming in, twelve-thirty flight
A D E F#m7 G Bm
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salva--tion
A C#m F#m7
I stopped an old man along the way
A G E F#m7 G Bm
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melo-dies
A C#m F#m7
He turned to me as if to say
F#m G Bm
Hurry boy its waiting there for you
[Chorus]
Em C G D
It's 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 Afri-ca
Em C G Bm D Em F#m G Bm
Gonna take some time to do the things we never haaaaaaaaaave
[interlude between verse]
G Bm
[Verse]
A C#m F#m7
The wild dogs cry out in the night
A D E F#m7 G Bm
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company

I know that I must do what is right
A D E F#m7 G Bm
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Seren-geti
A C#m F#m7
I seek to cure what's deep inside
F#m G Bm
Frightened of this thing that I've become
[Chorus]
Em C G D
It's 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

I bless the rains down in Afri-ca

Gonna take some time to do the things we never haaaaaaaaaave
