Africa - Toto

Intro: A  Dbm B

B                 Ebm       Abm
I hear the drums echoing tonight
                     A               Dbm
But she hears only whispers of some quiet
      Abm   A   Dbm
conversation
B                Ebm     Abm
She's coming in 12:30 flight
                     A                     Dbm
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me 
           Abm  A  Dbm
towards salvation
B          Ebm              Abm
I stop to know that along the way
                      A              Dbm
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient 
Abm   A  Dbm
melodies
B              Ebm              Abm
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's 
  A
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
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could 
    E
ever do
F#m           D            A  E
I bless the rains down in Africa
F#m              D                A
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

B              Ebm            Abm
The wild dogs cry out in the night
                         A              Dbm
As they grow restless longing for some solitary 
Abm  A  Dbm
company
B           Ebm               Abm
I know that I must do what's right
                         A          Dbm
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the
Abm     A  Dbm
Serangetti
B                Ebm          Abm
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of 
      A
this thing that I've become

Abm                A
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

F#m                D              A        E
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could 
     E
ever do
F#m           D           A    E  F#m
I bless the rains down in Africa, I passed some 
D             A    E
rains down in Africa
F#m           D           A    E  F#m
I bless the rains down in Africa, I passed some 
D             A    E
rains down in Africa
