Verse 1
(G major) Oh, the time will come (D major) up
When the (C major) winds will stop (G major)
And the breeze (E minor) will cease (C major)

The hour that the ship (D major) comes (G major) in

And the sea (B minor) s will split
And the ship (C major) will hit (G major)
And the sand (D major) s on the shoreline (A minor)

Then the tide will sound (D major)
And the wind (A minor) (C major) will pound (G major)
And the morning will be (D major)
break (C major) ing (G major)

Verse 3
(G major)
Oh, the fishes will laugh (D major)
As they swim (A minor) out (C major) of the path (G major)
And the seagulls (E minor) they'll (C major) be smil (G major) ing

And the words (B minor) that are used
(E minor) For to get the ship (G major) confused

And will be buried at the
bottom of (D major) the ocean (G major)
Verse 5
(G major)
A song will (B minor) lift
As the mainsail (C major) shift (G major) s
And the boat (E minor) drift (C major) s on to the shoreline (G major)
And the sun will respect
(D major) Every face (A minor) (C major) on the deck (G major)
The hour that the ship (D major) comes (G major) in
Verse 6
Then the sand (B minor) s will roll
Out (D major) a carpet (C major) of gold
(G major) For your weary (E minor) toes (C major) to be a-touchin'
An (G major) d And the ship's wise men
(D major) Will remind (C major) you once again (G major)
That the whole wide world (C major) is (D major) watchin' (G major)

Verse 7
Oh, (G major) the foes will (D major) rise
With the sleep still (A minor) in their (G major) eyes
And they'll jerk (E minor) from their beds (C major) and
think they're dream (G major) in'
But they'll pinch themselves and squeal
(B minor) An (D major) d (C major) know that it's for real (G major)
The hour when the ship (D major) comes (G major) in
(D major) Then they'll
Verse 8

Sayin' we'll meet all
(G major) your demands
But we'll shout (B minor) from the bow
(A major) your (A minor) days are numbered (G major)
And like Pharaoh's (D major) tribe
They'll be drownded (C major) in the tide
(G major) And like Goliath,
they'll be conquered
(D major) (C major) (D major) (G major)
