{c:verse 1}
[G]I hear the drums [Bm]echoing to-[Em]night
[G]She has only [F]whispers of some [Am]quiet conver-[Em]sa - [F]tion[Am]
[G]She's coming [Bm]in, twelve thirty [Em]flight, the [G]moonlit winds
Re-[F]flect the stars that [Am7]guide me toward sal-[Em]va-[F]tion [Am]
[G]I stopped an [Bm]old man along the [Em]way
[G]Hoping to find some [F]old forgotten [Am]words of ancient [Em]melo-[F]dies [Am]
[G]He turned to [B7]me as if to [Em]say, "Hurry boy it's [F]waiting there for [Am]you"

[G] The wild dogs [Bm]cry out in the [Em]night
As [G]they grow restless [F]longing for some [Am]solitary [Em]compa-[F]ny [Am]
[G] I know that [Bm]I must do what's [Em]right
As sure as [G]Kilimangaro [F]rises like [Am]Olympus above the [Em]Serenge-[F]ti [Am]
[G] I seek to [B7]cure what's deep in-[Em]side
[Em]Frightened of this [F]thing that I've be-[Am]come
