When The Ship Comes In

(intro) F   B   F   Dm   B    C    F

       F                          
Oh the time will come up when the 
B         F
wind will stop
        Dm          B         
And the breeze will cease to be 
  F
breathin'
Like the stillness in the wind 'fore
     B         F
 the hurricane begins
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
       C                       B  
Oh the seas will split and the 
       F
ship will hit
        C           B             
And the sand on the shoreline will
    F
 be shakin'
                   C           
And the tide will sound and the 
 B          F
waves will pound
                B    F  C     F  
And the mornin' will be breakin'!
B  C  F


F                                
Oh the fishes will laugh as they 
B               F
swim out of the path
        Dm        B           F
And the seagulls, they'll be smilin'

And the rocks on the sand will 
B       F
proudly stand
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
        C                          
And the words that are used for to 
B                F
get the ship confused
      C            B              
Will not be understood as they're 
  F
spoken'
                      C            
For the chains of the sea will have
 B             F
 busted in the night
                     B      F  C 
And be buried on the bottom of 
      F  B  C  F
the ocean.

F                          B     
Oh a song will lift as the 
    F
mainsail shifts
        Dm          B      
And the boat drifts onto the 
  F
shoreline
                               B   
And the sun will respect every face
        F
 on the deck
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
        C                     B   
And the sands will roll out a 
      F
carpet of gold
         C      B           F
For your weary toes to be a touchin'
                    C           B 
And the ship's wise men will 
              F
remind you once again
                    B     F
That the whole wide world is 
  C     F  B  C  F
watchin'!

F                              B 
Of the foes will rise with the 
                   F
sleep still in their eyes
             Dm             B     
And they'll jerk from their beds 
                 F
and think they're dreamin'
But they'll pinch themselves and 
                   B             
squeal and they'll know that it's 
     F
for real
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
            C                      
And they'll raise their hands 
         B             F
sayin' "We'll meet all your demands"
          C              B        
But we'll shout from the bow "Your
          F
 days are numbered!"
                   C               
And like Pharaoh's tribe they'll be
 B               F
 drownded in the tide
                 B       F
And like Goliath they'll be 
  C       F   B  C  F
conquered!
