(INTRO) G All that we got to be thankful for Em All that we got to be thankful for C Em In the heat, try to love these streets (VERSE 1) G In this town, it all went down C our chromosomes in sepia tones Em D C in my mind, in my mind G Where you lead your lives before C From our small island brought right back Em D C To these shores, to these shores, to these shores (CHORUS) Em G It's alive, It's alive when C D I see it through your eyes Em G It's alive, It's alive C D Now I understand your lives C Will you take me there G You show me the city Em D I see it through your eyes C Will you take me there G We drive through the city Em D beneath the Durban Skies Em Oh oh oh.. G All that we got to be thankful for (VERSE 2) G On the day you made your vows C The heavens open Em D C The rain poured down, down, down G Grey and brown, the seventies C The suits you wore, and the ones you love Em D C Were so young, were so young, you were so young (CHORUS) Em G It's alive, It's alive when C D I see it through your eyes Em G It's alive, It's alive C D Now I understand your lives C Will you take me there G You show me the city Em D I see it through your eyes C Will you take me there G We drive through the city Em D beneath the Durban Skies Em Oh oh oh.. G All that we got to be thankful for Em Oh, all that we got to be thankful for G All we got to be thankful for (CHORUS) Em G It's alive, It's alive when C D I see it through your eyes Em G It's alive, It's alive C D Now I understand your lies C Will you take me there G You show me the city Em D I see it through your eyes C Will you take me there G We drive through the city Em D beneath the Durban Skies C Will you take me there Em G It's alive, It's alive C Will you take me there Em D It's alive, It's alive
