oh the time will come up when the winds will stop and the breeze will cease to be breathed
like the stillness in the wind [Em] for the [G] hurricane begins the hour and the ship comes in
all [D] the seas will split and [G] the ship will hit and [D] the sands on the shoreline will [G] be shaken
and [D] the tide will sound [G] and the wind will pound and the morning will [D] be [G] breaking
all the fishes will laugh as [C] they swim [G] at all the pond and the seagulls they will be smiling
and the rocks on the sand [C] will proudly [G] stand the hour [D] and the ship [G] comes in
for [D] the words that are used [G] for to get the ship confused [D] will not be understood as they [G] are spoken
or [D] the chains of the sea [G] will have busted in the night and be buried at the bottom [D] of the
[G] ocean

[G] sun will lift as the mainsail shifts and the boat that twists onto the shoreline
and the sun will respect [C] every [G] face on the deck the hour that the ship comes in
and [D] the signs will roll [G] out a carpet of gold [D] we weary toes [G] to be touching [D] and the ship's wise
men [G] will remind you once again that the whole [C] wide world [D] is [G] watching
all the foes will rise [C] with the sleep slip [G] in their eyes and they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreaming
but they'll pinch themselves and squeal [C] and know that [G] it's for real the hour that the ship comes in
[D] then they'll raise their hands [G] and we'll meet your demands [D] and we'll shout from the bow your [G] days are numbered
[D] and like pharaoh's tribe [G] they'll be drowned in the tide like eliah they'll [D] be
[G] conquered
