Madiba Bay Lyrics & Tabs by Koos Kombuis
Madiba Bay
guitar chords lyrics
There's a little bird singing on my window sill,
I pretend I'm asleep, but it's singing there still.
There's a new day beginning, the rumors are true,
It's beginning for me, and beginning for you.
In this house where I'm living things move pretty slow
Some of them come, but most of them go
My days flow like water through the palm of my hand,
My life is no car-chase, just a stroll in the sand
No problem at work, no problem at play
No use getting excited, should I leave, should I stay?
No problem tomorrow, no problem today
No problem at all is the African way, in Madiba Bay
There's a gravel path leading from city to town
Winter and summer, autumn and spring
Can't play a damn note, and I don't know how to sing
There's a gravel path leading from city to town
Winter and summer, autumn and spring
Can't play a damn note, and I don't know how to sing
Two of us walked down that road in the night,
One of us came back, it seemed pretty right
I am the dark half attaining the light,
You bore the sorrow, I gave up the fight
Koortjie
There's a little bird singing on my window sill,
I pretend I'm asleep, but it's singing there still.
There's a new day beginning, the rumors are true
It's beginning for me, and beginning for you
Open your window, open your door
You don't need all this stuffy air anymore
Summer has gone, the pain is all gone
Wake up to the sunlight, wake up to the dawn
