Intro: G Verse 1: G Bm Oh the time will come up Am G When the winds will stop Em C G And the breeze will cease to be breathin’ G Bm Like the stillness in the wind Am G ’Fore the hurricane begins G D G The hour when the ship comes in Bridge: Bm And the seas will split A G And the ship will hit Em C G And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking G Bm Then the tide will sound Am G And the wind will pound G C D C G And the morning will be breaking
Verse 2: G Bm A song will lift Am G As the mainsail shifts Em C G And the boat drifts on to the shoreline G Bm And the sun will respect Am G Every face out on the deck G D G The hour that the ship comes in Bridge: Bm Then the sands will roll A G Out a carpet of gold Em C G For your weary toes to be a-touchin’ G Bm And the ship’s wise men Am G Will remind you once again G C D C G That the whole wide world is watchin’ Instrumental: G Bm Am C G Em C G G Em C G G D G Verse 3: G Bm Oh the foes will rise Am G With the sleep still in their eyes Em C G And they’ll jerk from their beds and think they’re dreamin’ G Bm But they’ll pinch themselves and squeal Am G And know that it’s for real G D G The hour when the ship comes in Outro: Bm Then they’ll raise their hands A G Sayin’ we’ll meet all your demands Em C G But we’ll shout from the bow your days are numbered G Bm And like Pharoah’s tribe Am G They’ll be drownded in the tide G C D C G And like Goliath, they’ll be conquered
