This is a cross between Toto and Howie Day. Great song on acoustic with finger picking
and strumming. The verses are Toto and the chorus is Howie Day, I think it just sounds
amazing.


                    Toto - Africa

                      
                                   A | Dbm || x4
B                   Em     Am
I hear the drums echoin tonight
B               A             Dbm         Am     Dbm
She has only whispers of some quiet conversa - tion
B                Ebm           Am          B
She's coming in twelve thirthy flight   the moolight winds
A                      Dbm              Am     Dbm
Reflect the stars that guide me toward salva-tion
B              Em             Am
I stopped an old man along the way
B                   A             Dm              Am   A Dm
Hoping to find some old forgotten words of ancient melo-dies
B              Em       Am                 A                Dbm
He turned to me as if to say  hurry boy it's waiting there for you
     Em            C               G*       D
     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*          D       E C G* D
     Gonna take some time to do the things we never  had

B                 Em         Am
The wild dogs cry out in the night
B            A                    Dm            Am    Dbm
As they grow restless longing for some solitary compa-ny
B          Em               Am
I know that I must do what's right
B                     A          Dbm                  Am    Dbm
Sure as kilimangiaro rises like Olympus above the seranget-ti
     B         Em                 Am
     I seek to cure what's deep inside
Am                  A               Dbm
Frightened of this thing that I've become
      Em            C               G*       D
     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
