Intro: A  G#  C#   x4

B                F#/C#    G#m
I hear the drums echoing tonight
    F#              A/D              E/E         B     A  G#  C# 
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
B           F#/C#     G#m
Shes coming in 12:30 flight
    F#               A/D                  E/E                 B     A  G#  C# 
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
B            F#/C#              G#m
I stopped an old man along the way
F#                   A/D            E/E              B       A  G#  C# 
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
B            F#/C#        G#m                  A                      G#  C# 
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, its waiting there for you!"

F#m                D               A        E   
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
F#m                     D              A               E
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
F#m          D             A   E
I bless the rains down in Africa
F#m              D              A               C#m7   E   F#m G#m

B             F#/C#           G#m
The wild dogs cry out in the night
   F#                  A/D              E/E      B      A  G#  C# 
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
B           F#/C#             G#m
I know that I must do what's right
        F#           A/D         F#/D              B        A  G#  C# 
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
B         F#/C#               G#m                      A                     G#  C# 
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

F#m                D               A        E   
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
F#m                     D              A               E
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
