_ _ [A] _ _ [E] I slept through the _ _ 1960s I heard Dori Prellin say
_ _ But me I called me the great white wolf To the shores of Africa
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] Where I lost my adolescent heart _ To the sound of a talking drum _ _
East of Woodstock, [B] West of [E] Vietnam _ On _ [A] _ _ [E] the roads outside of Chopeville
[A] Lord, I fell down on my knees [E] _ There were female spirits in old mud huts
Iron bells ringing [B] up in the _ trees _ _ _ [E] And an 80-year-old white priestess
[A] Made choo-choo all night long _ [E] East of Woodstock, [B] West of _ [E] Vietnam
_ _ _ Raise [A] high, Lord of Pene, carpenter boy We're [E] coming through the ride _
In the cinema I watched the man on the moon I laughed so [B] hard I cried _
But _ it [E] was somewhere in the rainy seasons [A] I learned to carve my songs
East [E] _ of [B]
Woodstock, West of [E] Vietnam _ Oh, [B] _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _

Africa, _ _ Mother Africa
You lay heavy on my breath You old cradle of civilization _ _
Heart of [F#] darkness, [B] blood and dew _ _ _ _ _ [E] But we had to flee running scared
_ When the crocodile ate the sun _ Lord, East of Woodstock, [B] West of [E] Vietnam _ _ _
_ _ _ I think it's gonna rain tonight [A] I can smell it coming off the stage
_ [E] As I sit here reading old Graham Greene I taste Africa [B] on every page _ _ _
And then I [E] close my eyes and see the red clay roads
[A] Of sundown and, boys, I'm gone _
[E] East of Woodstock, [B] West of [E] Vietnam
_ _ _ _ Raise [A] high, Lord of Pene, carpenter boy _ _
[E] We're coming through the ride
It was a movable feast, a war in memory A dark old [B] lullaby _ _ _
_ _ It [E] was the smoke of a thousand cook fires It [A] was the wrong end of a gun
_ _ [E] Yeah, East of Woodstock, West of Vietnam
_ Hey, [A] _ _ _ _ [E] East of Woodstock, [B] West of [E] Vietnam _ _ _
