[G] [C] [G] [Em]
[C] [G]
[C] [D] [G]
All the [Bm] time will come [C] up when the winds will [G] stop
The breeze [C] will cease [G] to be breathing Like the stone that's [Bm] in the wind
[C] For the hurricane [G] begins The hour [D] when the ship [G]
comes in
[D] All the seas will split [G] and the ship will hit
[D] And the sands on the shore that [G] will be shaking
[D] The time will sound [G] and the waves will pound
And the morning will be breaking
The fish [Bm] ears will laugh [C] as they swim out [G] of the pan
The [C] seagulls they [G] will be smiling
The rocks [Bm] are the [C] sand, the [G] ground is damp
Pee out and [D] the ship [G] comes in
[D] The words I [G] use won't get the ship confused
[D] Might be [G] understood, say it's spoken
[D] The change I see [G] when I bust in and I
Prepare it and I'll find my own ocean
[Em] [G] The [Em] [C]
[D] [G]
[C] [G]
sun [Bm] will lift [C] as the blades [G] sail ships
[C] Born, dressed up [G] to the shoreline
The sun [Bm] will respect [C] every face [G] on the deck
Pee out and [D] the ship [G] comes in
[D] And the sands will [G] roll out of carpet of gold
[D] And your weary [G] toes will feel touching
And the ship's wise men will not to escape
All while the world is [D]
[G] watching
The foes will [C] rise with the sea still in [G] their eyes
Jump from [C] their beds, I think [G] they're dreaming
Pumping [Bm] themselves and screaming, [C] no [G] they're fooling
Pee out [D] and the ship [G] comes in
[D]
They'll raise their hands, [G] they will meet a young man
[D] Shout from the clouds, [G] he'll take them number
[D] Locked down on [G] dry, they'll be burning inside
Like a liar, they'll be [D] gone
