I just saw a tab for this song out there. But since it was missing quite a few
chords i decided to post my version. This is just like TOTO'S version.The only
difference is Howie's version is in a different key and acoustic. Any questions
or concerns: [email protected]

INTRO: G Bm

A C#m F#m
I hear the drums echoing tonight
A G Bm F#m G Bm
She hears only whispers of some quiet conversations
A C#m F#m
She's coming in twelve- thirty flight
A G Bm F#m G Bm
The moonlit winds reflect the stars that guide me toward salvation
A C#m F#m
I stopped an old man along the way
A G Bm F#m G Bm
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
A C#m F#m G Bm
He turned to me as if to say Hurry boy it's waiting there for you

CHORUS:

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 Africa
Em C G Bm D Em G Bm
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

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

G Bm A C#m F#m
