G
All that we got to be thankful for
Em
All that we got to be thankful for
        C            D       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                  Em
 You show me the city
                      D
I see it through your eyes
          C
Will you take me there
G                       Em
 We drive through the city
                D
beneath the Durban Skies


Em
Oh oh oh..
Em
Oh oh oh..
G
All that we got to be thankful for


(VERSE 2)
G
On the day you made your vows
     C              D
The heavens opened, rain poured down
          Em    D           C
It poured down, down, down, down
G
Grey and brown, the seventies
    C                       D
The suits you wore, and the ones you love
        Em             D                    C
Were so young, were so young, oh, 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                  Em
 You show me the city
                      D
I see it through your eyes
          C
Will you take me there
G                       Em
 We drive through the city
                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 lives
          C
Will you take me there
G                  Em
 You show me the city
                      D
I see it through your eyes
          C
Will you take me there
G                       Em
 We drive through the city
                D
beneath the Durban Skies


          C           G
Will you take me there 
      Em           G
It's alive, It's alive
          C           G
Will you take me there
      Em           D
It's alive, It's alive
