The Moon Loungers - Africa Chords

INTRO: G - G/F# - Bm  (x 4)


VERSE 1

A                 C#m       F#m
I hear the drums echoing tonight
    F#m/E           G                Bm         F#m    G - G/F# - Bm
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
A           C#m       F#m
Shes coming in 12:30 flight 
    F#m/E           G                     Bm                 F#m    G - G/F# - Bm
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
A            C#m               F#m
I stopped an old man along the way
F#m/E                G              Bm              F#m   G  G/F#  Bm
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
A            C#m         F#m   F#m/E            G                   G/F# - Bm
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, its waiting there for you!"


CHORUS

Em7               Cadd9           G        D
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Em7                    Cadd9          G               D
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
Em7         Cadd9         G   D
I bless the rains down in Africa
Em7             Cadd9          G               Bm   D   Em7 - D/F# - G
Gonna take some time to do the things we never haaaaaaaaad

VERSE 2

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


CHORUS

Em7               Cadd9           G        D
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
Em7         Cadd9         G   D
I bless the rains down in Africa
Em7             Cadd9          G               Bm7   D    Em7 - D/F# - G
