(intro) F   B   F   Dm   B    C    F

       F                          B         F
Oh the time will come up when the wind will stop
        Dm          B           F
And the breeze will cease to be breathin'
                                         B         F
Like the stillness in the wind 'fore the hurricane begins
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
       C                       B         F
Oh the seas will split and the ship will hit
        C           B                 F
And the sand on the shoreline will be shakin'
                   C            B          F
And the tide will sound and the waves will pound
                B    F  C     F  B  C  F
And the mornin' will be breakin'!

F                                B               F
Oh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path
        Dm        B           F
And the seagulls, they'll be smilin'
                               B       F
And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
        C                          B                F
And the words that are used for to get the ship confused
      C            B                F
Will not be understood as they're spoken'
                      C             B             F
For the chains of the sea will have busted in the night
                     B      F  C       F  B  C  F
And be buried on the bottom of the ocean.

F                          B         F
Oh a song will lift as the mainsail shifts
        Dm          B        F
And the boat drifts onto the shoreline
                               B           F
And the sun will respect every face on the deck
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
        C                     B         F
And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold
         C      B           F
For your weary toes to be a touchin'
                    C           B               F
And the ship's wise men will remind you once again
                    B     F  C     F  B  C  F
That the whole wide world is watchin'!

F                              B                    F
Of the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes
             Dm             B                      F
And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'
                                                    B                  F
But they'll pinch themselves and squeal and they'll know that it's for real
                  B    C     F
The hour that the ship comes in.
            C                               B             F
And they'll raise their hands sayin' "We'll meet all your demands"
          C              B                  F
But we'll shout from the bow "Your days are numbered!"
                   C                B               F
And like Pharaoh's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide
                 B       F  C       F   B  C  F
And like Goliath they'll be conquered!
