    Africa - Toto: F em Am

    Uploaded by

    Juan Olguin
    The document contains the lyrics to the song "Africa" by Toto. It tells the story of a man who hears drums and stops an old man to find forgotten words or melodies. He sees the moonlit wings of a plane coming to take a woman away. The man seeks to cure what is inside him and knows he must do what is right, as a mountain rises above the plains. It will take time to do things they never had.
