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.

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

The wild dogs cry out in the night

As they grow restless longing for some solitary compa-ny

Sure as kilimangiaro rises like Olympus above the seranget-ti
B Em Am
I seek to cure what's deep inside

Frightened of this thing that I've become

Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
