Bastille es una banda londinense de pop alternativo. Se formó en 2010 como un proyecto en solitario de Dan Smith que más tarde decidió convertirlo en una banda compuesta por el propio Dan Smith (cantante/compositor), Chris 'Woody' Wood (bateria), Will Farquarson (bajo) y Kyle Simmons (teclados). El nombre de la banda se debe a que el cumpleaños del lider del grupo, Dan Smith, coincide con el día de la toma de La Bastilla.
Lanzaron su debut con Flaws y Icarus en Young & Lost Club en Junio del 2011.

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