Eko chords by Coldplay

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
 D G   D G D G D G
   Ah-hmm

Verse 1: Chris Martin:
 G
Joseph rode in on a beam of light
                          Bm
Stray dogs to welcome him, fights, corrugate cathedrals
   F                          C
The sight of the pilgrim's going nowhere in millions of cars

Verse 2: Chris Martin:
  G
Lagos a dream in the distance

From promises he'd made behind
           Bm
Where there was no harvest
  F
But he missed the sky and its circus
          Cm
And countless, the stars

Chorus: Chris Martin:
  Em
In Africa

The rivers are perfectly deep
         G
And beautifully wide
  C
In Africa

The mothers will sing you to sleep
         G    C
And say, "It's alright, child
    G    C
It's alright"

Bridge:
   D G
Yeah
   D G D G
Ah-hmm
    D G D
Ah-hmm

Chorus: Chris Martin and Tiwa Savage, Chris Martin:
   Em
In Africa

We dance in the water and hold
        G
Each other so tight
   C
In Africa

The mothers will sing you to sleep
         Bm   C
And say, "It's alright, child
    Bm   C
It's alright"

Verse 3: Chris Martin:
 G
Joseph rode in on a beam of light

And dreamed of his queen by his side

There'll be a beautiful sunset

And you'll be a beautiful bride
