G* Bm G* Bm 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 G* Bm G* Bm I stopped an old man along the way G* Bm G* Bm Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies G* Bm G* Bm He turned to me as if to say, ''Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you'' 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 Afr--ica Em C G D Gonna take some time to do the things we never had G* Bm G* Bm 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 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 Afr--ica Em C G D Gonna take some time to do the things we never had G* Bm G* Bm Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you 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 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
