Intro: 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 G
'fore the hurricane begins
D G
The hour that 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 C 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 C 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 C 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 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 C G
And like goliath they'll be conquered
