H I hear the drums D#mi echoing G#mi tonight
H/F# She hears only A/E whispers of some C#mi quiet G#mi conversa A G#mi tion C#mi
H She's coming in, D#mi twelve thirty G#mi flight
The H/F# moonlit wings A/E reflect the stars that Hsus4/F# guide me toward G#mi salva A G#mi tion C#mi
H I stopped an D#mi old man along the G#mi way
Hoping H/F# to find some A/E old forgotten Hsus4/F# words or ancient G#mi A G#mi melodies C#mi
H He turned to D#mi me as if to G#mi say “hurry boy, it's A waiting there for C#mi you”
F#mi Gonna take a D lot to drag me A away from E you
F#mi There's nothing that a D hundred men or A more could ever E do
F#mi I bless the D rains down A in E Africa
F#mi Gonna take some D time to do the A things we never C#mi had
E F#mi
E/G# Ooo A

H The wild dogs D#mi cry out in the G#mi night
As H/F# they grow restless A/E longing for some Hsus4/F# solitary G#mi A compa-ny
G#mi C#mi
H I know that D#mi I must do what's G#mi right
As sure as H/F# Kilimanjaro A/E rises like Hsus4/F# Olympus above the G#mi Ser A engeti
G#mi C#mi
H I seek to D#mi cure what's deep G#mi inside
G#mi Frightened of this A thing that I've C#mi become
F#mi Gonna take a D lot to drag me A away from E you
F#mi There's nothing that a D hundred men or A more could ever E do
F#mi I bless the D rains down A in E Africa
