(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 C-P-R 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 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


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
It shoots you war, 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 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

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
