of some |C| quiet conver-|Em| sa-|F| tion |C - Am| 

|G| She's coming in, |D/F#| twelve-thirty |Em| flight
The |Em/D| moonlit wings re-|F| flect 
the stars that |C| guide me towards sal-|Em| va-|F| tion |C - Am|

|G| I know that |D/F#| I must do what's |Em| right
Sure as |Em/D| Kilimanjaro |F| rises like 
O-|C| lympus above the |Em| Serenge-|F| ti  |C - Am|
