Intro
LA5 SI5 DO5 RE5 SI5
Two years ago Ali Farka left his people
LA5 SI5 DO5 RE5 SI5
Looking for wisdom
LA5 SI5 DO5 RE5 SI5
And as soon as he'd found it he'd return To his people
LA5
RE5 DO5 SIb5
Master has been long away from us on his trip
RE5 DO5 SIb5
None of us have heard a word from him in two years
RE5 DO5 SOL#5
Everyone is waiting for the day of his return, but
RE5 DO5
wait the silence's breaking, I climb up in the nearest tree to
SI5 SIb5 LA5
see who could be coming round to visit us
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
I can see Farka coming
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
riding on his arabian horse, the
MI5 DO5/MI FA#5 LA5 RE5
shade of him, it can't be mistaken
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
I can see our master come
RE5 DO5 SIb5
Still he's far away too far away for me to see, per-
RE5 DO5 SIb5
haps I was mistaken when I thought I saw him come
RE5 DO5 SIb5
Intuition tells me I could maybe be wrong, but
RE5 DO5
wait the silence's breaking, I go up on the mountain side, to
SI5 SIb5 LA5
see who could be coming round to visit us,
LA5
there must be something big going on now
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
I can see Farka coming
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
riding on his arabian horse, the
MI5 DO5/MI FA#5 LA5 RE5
shade of him, it can't be mistaken
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
I can see our master come
DO#5 RE5 DO#5 RE5 DO#5 RE5
Party's on, the people gathers, Farka's brought his
MIb5 RE5 DO#5
wisdom to us, his wisdom to us
[Solo: Over verse]
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
I can see Farka coming
MI5 DO5/MI FA#m LA5 RE5
riding on his arabian horse, the
MI5 DO5/MI FA#5 LA5 RE5
shade of him, it can't be mistaken
