[Verse 1]
B                   D#m     G#m
I hear the drums echoing tonight
B/F#              A/E           C#m         G#m  A  G#m C#m
She hears only whispers of some quiet conversa - tion
B                D#m           G#m
She's coming in, twelve thirty flight
        B/F#        A/E                  Bsus/F#            G#m  A  G#m C#m
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me toward salva - tion
B            D#m               G#m
I stopped an old man along the way
       B/F#         A/E           Bsus/F#          G#m    A  G#m C#m
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melo - dies
B            D#m         G#m                  A                  C#m
He turned to me as if to say “hurry boy, it's waiting there for you”
 
[Chorus]
F#m           D              A        E
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#m  E  F#m  E/G#  A
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...
    A G#m C#m
Ooo Ooo
    A G#m C#m
 
[Verse 2]
B             D#m            G#m
The wild dogs cry out in the night
   B/F#               A/E              Bsus/F#  G#m   A G#m C#m
As they grow restless longing for some solitary compa-ny
B           D#m              G#m
I know that I must do what's right
           B/F#        A/E         Bsus/F#            G#m     A G#m C#m
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Ser - engeti
B         D#m                G#m
I seek to cure what's deep inside
G#m                A                 C#m
Frightened of this thing that I've become
 
[Chorus]
F#m           D              A        E
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#m  E  F#m  E/G#  A
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...
    A G#m C#m
Ooo Ooo
    A G#m C#m
 
[Interlude]
B    D#m      G#m   B/F#
A/E  Bsus/F#  G#m   A  G#m C#m
 
[Bridge]
B   D#7  G#m                   A                 C#m
            “hurry boy, she's waiting there for you”
 
[Outro]
     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   E
I bless the rains down in Africa
F#m          D             A   E
I bless the rains down in Africa
F#m          D             A   E
I bless the rains down in Africa
F#m          D             A   E
I bless the rains down in Africa
F#m             D              A               C#m  E  F#m  E/G#  A
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had…
    A G#m C#m
Ooo Ooo
    A G#m C#m
