[C] [Ab] [Gm]
[Cm] I [Ab] [Cm]
[Bb] hear the [F] drums echoing [Gm] tonight, [Bb] and she hears only [Ab] whispers of [Cm] some quiet [Gm] conversation.
[Ab] [Eb] [Bb]
She's coming [Dm] in a 1230 [Gm] flight, [Bb] even though it wings [Ab] reflect [Eb] the stars that guide [Gm] her toward salvation.
[Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] I stopped [Dm] an old man along [Gm] the way, [Bb] hoping to find [Ab] some old forgotten [Gm] words of ancient
[Ab] melodies.
[Gm] [Cm] [Bb] He turns [F] to me as if [Gm] to say, hurry boy, [Ab] it's waiting there for [Cm] you.
The [Fm] [Db] [Ab]
[Eb] [Fm] [Db] [Ab] more the [Eb] [Fm] first [Db] rains [Ab] come, [Eb] [Fm] each [Db] time still [Ab] the things we never [Cm] [Eb] had.

[Cm] [Bb] The wild [F] wolves cry out in [Gm] the [Bb] night, as they grow restless, [Ab] longing for [Eb] some [Gm] solitary [Ab] company.
[Cm]
[Bb] I know [Dm] that I must do [Gm] what's right, as [Bb] the red skeleton in [Ab] general rises [Eb] above the invisible
[Gm] world of [Ab]
serengeti.
[Cm] [Bb] I [Dm] seek to cure what's [Gm] deep inside, frightened [Ab] of this thing that I've [Cm] become.
[Fm] [Db] Should've said you were [Ab]
[Eb] [Fm] just [Db] another [Ab] abnormal world, but [Eb] the [Fm] [Db] first rains [Ab] come tonight.
[Eb] [Fm] Gonna [Db] take some time to [Ab] give up the things we [Cm] never [Eb] had.

[Dm] [Gm] [Fm]
[Eb] [Bb] [Ab]
[Cm] [Bb] [Dm] [Gm] Hurry [Ab] boy, she's waiting there for [Cm] you.
It's [Fm] gonna take a [Db] lot to [Ab] take [Eb] it from me, [Fm] [Db] but I'll keep [Ab] my long walk [Eb] ahead of her.
[Fm] [Db] I'll push the rains [Ab] down in [Eb] Africa.
