Hello!
You never thought you'd hear Dylan with an Irish accent, did you?
[Em] [E]
Oh, the time [Abm] will come up when [A] the winds [E] will stop
And [Dbm] the breeze will [E] cease to be breathing
Like the stillness in [Abm] the wind before [A] the hurricane [E] begins
The hour that [B] the ship [E] comes in
[Abm] And the sea will sink [E] and the ship will hit
And the sands [A] of shoreline [E] will be shaking
And the [Abm] tide will sound [A] and the waves [E] will bow
And the morning will [B] be breaking
[E]
Oh, the pitters will laugh as they swim out of the path
And [Abm] the seagulls they will [E] be smiling
The rocks on the sand [A] will proudly [E] stand
For the hour [B] that the ship [E] comes in
[Abm] And the words that are used [A] for the ship [E] comes in
The words [Abm] will not be [A] understood [E] as they're spoken
[Abm] For the change of the sea [A] will outbust and [E] end the night
And be buried on the bottom [B] of the [E] ocean
Oh, the song will lift [A] as the [E] mainsail shifts
And the [Dbm] boat trace on [E] through the shoreline
And the sun [Abm] will respect [A] every [E] face on the deck
The [B] hour that the ship [E]
comes in
[Abm] And the sands [E] will [A] roll out in [B] part of the boat
[Abm] For you're really, really [E] closely touching
And [Abm] the ships wide men [B] will remind [E] you once again
That the whole wide world [B] is [E] watching
[Abm]

[E]
Oh, the boat [Abm] will rise [A] with the sea still [E] in their eyes
[Dbm] And they'll jerk off their beds and [E] think they're dreaming
But they'll pinch [Abm] themselves and squeal [A] and they'll know [E] that it's for real
The [B] hour that the ship [E] comes in
[Abm] Then they'll raise their hands [Dbm] and say we'll need all your [E] demands
But we'll shout [B] from the bow your [E] favorite number
And like [Abm] famous [E] scribe they'll be crowded in the tide
Like a lion [B] they'll be caught
[E]
[Em]
[N] Bless you all.
Thank you.
