Verse 1
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
Oh, the time will come up

C C 
 
When the winds will stop

Em Em 
 
And the breeze will cease
C C 
 
G G 
 
to be breathin'
Bm Bm 
 
Like the stillness in the wind
Am Am 
 
G G 
 
Before the hurricane begins
C C 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
The hour that the ship comes in

Verse 2
Bm Bm 
 
And the seas will split
Am Am 
 
And the ship will hit
G G 
 
Bm Bm 
 
Am Am 
 
And the sands on the shoreline

will be shaking

Then the tide will sound
Am Am 
 
C C 
 
And the wind will pound
G G 
 
D D 
 
And the morning will be breaking

Oh,

Verse 3
Bm Bm 
 
the fishes will laugh
Am Am 
 
As they swim out of the path
G G 
 
Em Em 
 
C C 
 
And the seagulls they'll
G G 
 
be smiling
Bm Bm 
 
And the rocks on the sand
Am Am 
 
Will proudly stand
G G 
 
D D 
 
The hour that the ship comes in
G G 
 

Verse 4
Bm Bm 
 
And the words that are used
Am Am 
 
G G 
 
For to get the ship confused
Em Em 
 
C C 
 
Will not be understood
G G 
 
as they're spoken
For the chains of the sea
Bm Bm 
 
Am Am 
 
Will have busted in the night
G G 
 
And will be buried at the bottom
C C 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
of the ocean

Verse 5
Bm Bm 
 
A song will lift
Am Am 
 
C C 
 
As the mainsail shifts
G G 
 
Em Em 
 
C C 
 
And the boat drifts on to
G G 
 
the shoreline
Bm Bm 
 
And the sun will respect
Am Am 
 
C C 
 
Every face on the deck
G G 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
The hour that the ship comes in

Verse 6
Bm Bm 
 
Then the sands will roll
Am Am 
 
Out a carpet of gold
G G 
 
Em Em 
 
C C 
 
For your weary toes to be
G G 
 
a- touchin'
Bm Bm 
 
And the ship's wise men
Am Am 
 
C C 
 
G G 
 
Will remind you once again
C C 
 
D D 
 
That the whole wide world is watchin'
G G

With the sleep still in their eyes

C C 
 
And they'll jerk from their beds
G G 
 
and think they're dreamin'
Bm Bm 
 
But they'll pinch themselves and squeal
Am Am 
 
G G 
 
And know that it's for real
C C 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
The hour when the ship comes in

Then they'll raise their hands Sayin'

Verse 8
Am Am 
 
we'll meet
G G 
 
all your demands
Bm Bm 
 
But we'll shout from the bow
Am Am 
 
G G 
 
your days are numbered
Bm Bm 
 
And like Pharaoh's tribe
Am Am 
 
C C 
 
G G 
 
They'll be drownded in the tide
C C 
 
D D 
 
C C 
 
G G 
 
And like Goliath, they'll be conquered
