    • Verse 1
    Oh, 
    the time 
    will 
    come up 

    When 
    the winds 
    will 
    stop 

    And 
    the breeze 
    will 
    cease 

    to 
    be 
    breathin' 

    Like 
    the stillness 
    in 
    the wind 

    Before 
    the hurricane 
    begins 

    The 
    hour that 
    the ship 
    comes 
    in 

    Verse 2
    And 
    the seas 
    will 
    split 

    And 
    the ship 
    will 
    hit 

    And 
    the sands 
    on 
    the shoreline 

    will 
    be shaking 

    Then 
    the tide 
    will 
    sound 

    And the wind 
    will 
    pound 

    And the morning 
    will 
    be 
    break
    ing 

    Oh, 
    Verse 3
    the fishes 
    will 
    laugh 

    As 
    they swim 
    out 
    of the path 

    And the seagull
    s they'll 

    be 
    smiling 

    And the rocks 
    on 
    the 
    sand 

    Will 
    proudly 
    stand 

    The 
    hour that 
    the ship 
    comes 
    in 

    Verse 4
    And 
    the words 
    that 
    are used 

    For 
    to get 
    the ship 
    con
    fused 

    Will not 
    be under
    stood 

    as 
    they're spoken 

    For 
    the chains 
    of the sea 

    Will 
    have busted 
    in 
    the night 

    And 
    will be buried 
    at the bottom 

    of 
    the 
    ocean

    Verse 5
    A song 
    will lift 

    As 
    the main
    sail 
    shifts 

    And 
    the boat 
    drifts 
    on to 

    the 
    shoreline 

    And the sun 
    will 
    respect 

    Every 
    face 
    on 
    the 
    deck 

    The 
    hour that 
    the ship 
    comes 
    in 

    Verse 6
    Then 
    the sands 
    will 
    roll 

    Out 
    a carpet 
    of 
    gold 

    For 
    your weary 
    toes 
    to be 

    a- touchin' 

    And the ship's 
    wise 
    men 

    Will re
    mind you 
    once 
    again 

    That the 
    whole wide 
    world 
    is 
    watchin' 

    Interlude 1






    Verse 7
    Oh, the 
    foes 
    will 
    rise 

    With the 
    sleep still 
    in their 
    eyes 

    And 
    they'll 
    jerk 
    from their 
    beds 

    and think they're 
    dreamin' 

    But they'll 
    pinch themselves 
    and 
    squeal 

    And 
    know that 
    it's for 
    real 

    The 
    hour 
    when 
    the 
    ship 
    comes 
    in 

    Then they'll 
    raise 
    their 
    hands 
    Sayin' 
    Verse 8

    we'll meet 

    all your de
    mands 

    But we'll 
    shout from 
    the bow 

    your 
    days 
    are 
    numbered 

    And like 
    Pharaoh's 
    tribe 

    They'll be 
    drownded 
    in the 
    tide 

    And like 
    Goliath, 
    they'll 
    be 
    conquered

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
