Africa written by Toto
I made some motifications to this tab because when i submitted it the first time i tabbed a few things wrong.
Unfortunatly I noticed that this song was not tabbed out so I took the liberty of tabbing it.
This is a great song and hopefully you will enjoy playing it as much as I do. This is pretty much 100% correct.
