Africa Live

I'm just finishing what Adam 
started.  Hopefully I'm not too far 
off.

Just like in the original by Todo, 
there is a motif-like
part which is basically the intro to
 the song.  Through
the second line of a verse he goes 
into it if you listen.
I'll just put this three chord part 
in parenthesis and then
it's just a matter of getting the 
rhythm down.

Chords (in no apparent order whatsoever)            
  G     Bm          A    Dbm     
--3-----2-----0-----0-----3-----3-
--3-----3-----0-----1-----3-----3-
--4-----4-----0-----0-----0-----4-
--5-----4-----2-----2-----0-----5-
--5-----2-----2-----3-----2-----5-
--3-----X-----0-----0-----3-----3-


Chorus 
  Em    C     G    D 
--0-----0-----3-----2--|  
--0-----1-----3-----3--|  
--0-----0-----4-----2--|  
--2-----2-----5-----0--|  
--2-----3-----5-----0--|  
--0-----0-----3-----X--|  

***  the spacing of the chords is a 
result of my laziness...

don't rely on it...   ;)

A                Dbm        Gbm
I hear the drums echoing tonight
A                  G             
But she hears only whispers of 
    Bm        Gbm   (G Gbm Bm)
some quiet conversation
A                Dbm        Gbm
She's coming in 12:30 flight
A                  G             
The moonlit wings reflect the 
    Bm        Gbm   (G 
stars that guide me towards 
Gbm Bm)
salvation
A                Dbm        Gbm
I stopped an old man along the way
A                  G             
Hoping to find some long 
    Bm        Gbm   (G Gbm Bm)
forgotten words or ancient melodies
G*                       Bm
He turned to me as if to say, 
          G*  Bm
''Hurry boy, it's waiting there for 
you''

(this is me agreeing with adam... 
kinda)

Em              C                
It's gonna take a lot to drag me 
G         D
away from you
Em                     C         
There's nothing that a hundred 
     G               D
men or more could ever do
Em          C             G    D
I bless the rains down in Afr--ica
Em              C       G       
         Bm  D  Em G Bm
