Verse 1
(D major) Oh, (G major) (A major) (D major) (G major) (A major) (D major)
(G major) (A major) the (D major) time will come
when the (G major) winds will stop
(D major) And the (B minor) breeze (G major) will cease
to be a (D major) -breathin'
Like the stillness in the wind
before the (G major) hurricane begin (D major) s
The hour that the (G major) ship comes (A major) (D major) in
Then the (F sharp minor) seas will split
and the (G major) ships will hit
(D major) And the (F sharp minor) sands on the shoreline (G major)
will be shak (D major) ing
And the (F sharp minor) tide will sound
and the (G major) waves will pound (D major)
The morning will (G major) be a
(A major) breaking (D major) (G major) (A major) (D major)
(G major) Oh, (A major) the (D major) fishes will (F sharp minor) laugh
as they (G major) swim out on the (D major) bow
The seagulls (B minor) (G major) will be a (D major) -s miling
And the rocks on the sand
will proudly (G major) stand (D major)
The hour that the (G major) ship comes (A major) (D major) in
And the (F sharp minor) sounds that are used for
to (G major) get the ship confused
(D major) Will (F sharp minor) not be understood
(G major) as they're (D major) spoken
And the (F sharp minor) chains of the sea
will have (G major) busted in the night
(D major) And we'll bear it on the (G major) bottom
of the (A major) ocean (D major) (A major) (D major)
(G major) A (A major) song (D major) will lift as
the (G major) main sail shift (D major) s
And the boat (B minor) drifts (G major) onto the shoreline (D major)
And the sun will respect
(F sharp minor) every face (G major) on the deck (D major)
The hour that the (G major) ship comes (A major) (D major) in
And the sands (F sharp minor) will roll
(G major) out a carpet of (D major) gold
Your (F sharp minor) weary toes (G major) to be a (D major) -touchin'
And the (F sharp minor) ship's wise men
will remind (G major) you once again
(D major) The whole wide world (G major) is a (A major) -watchin' (D major)
Oh, the foes will rise
with the (G major) sleep still in their (D major) eyes
They'll (B minor) jerk from their bed (G major) s
and think they're (D major) dreamin'
But they'll pinch themselves and (F sharp minor) squeal
(D major) And they'll (G major) know that it's for (D major) real
They are that the ship comes (A major) (D major) in
Then they'll (F sharp minor) raise their hands
And we'll (G major) meet all your de (D major) mands
We'll shout from the (G major) bows,
your days are (D major) numbered
Then like (F sharp minor) Pharaoh's tribe
They'll be (G major) drownin' in the (D major) tide
Like all that they'll (G major) be a (A major) -conquer (D major) in'
(G major) (A major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (D major)
