Intro: G C G D G C D G  

       G         D  
Oh the time will come up  
         C           G  
When the winds will stop  
         Em           C          G  
And the breeze will cease to be breathin’  
          G                D  
Like the stillness in the wind  
           C          D  
’fore the hurricane begins  
     D                        G  
The hour when the ship comes in  



       D          C  
Oh the seas will split  
         G  
And the ship will hit  
          D            C                 G  
And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking  
         D           C  
Then the tide will sound  
         G  
And the wind will pound  
          D             D      G  
And the morning will be breaking  



         G          D  
Oh the fishes will laugh  
           C            G  
As they swim out of the path  
           Em       C        G  
And the seagulls they’ll be smiling  
         G           D  
And the rocks on the sand  
C            G  
Will proudly stand  
      D                     G  
The hour that the ship comes in  



         D               C  
And the words that are used  
               G  
For to get the ship confused  
                D          C        G  
Will not be understood as they’re spoken  
        D                 C  
For the chains of the sea  
            G  
Will have busted in the night  
              D              D           G  
And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean  



  G         D  
A song will lift  
       C           G  
As the mainsail shifts  
         Em                 C            G  
And the boat that drifts on to the shore line  
       G          D  
And the sun will respect  
    C               G  
Every face on the deck  
    D                        G  
The hour that the ship comes in  



           D         C  
Then the sands will roll  
         G  
Out a carpet of gold  
            D                C    G  
For your weary toes to be a touchin’  
D                      C  
And the ship’s wise men  
           G  
Will remind you once again  
           D                 D      G  
That the whole wide world is watchin’  



         G          D  
Oh the foes will rise  
          C                   G  
With the sleep still in their eyes  
             Em             C                             G  
And they’ll jerk from their beds and think they’re still dreamin’  
            G                     D  
But they’ll pinch themselves and squeel  
      C                G  
And know that it’s for real  
     D                       G  
The hour that the ship comes in  



               D           C  
Then they’ll raise their hands  
                 G  
Sayin’ we’ll meet all your demands  
            D                             C       G  
But we’ll shout from the bow your days are numbered  
D                       C  
And like pharaoh’s tribe  
             G  
They’ll be drownded in the tide  
          D                   D       G  
And like goliath they’ll be conquered   



Enjoy!
