       F (133211@1)                        B (x2444x@1)       FOh (133211@1)the time will come up when the wind will stop
        Dm (xx0231@1)        B (x2444x@1)         FAnd (133211@1)the breeze will cease to be breathin'

                  B (x2444x@1)  C (x32010@1)   FThe (133211@1)hour that the ship comes in.

                   C (x32010@1)          B (x2444x@1)        FAnd (133211@1)the tide will sound and the waves will pound
                B (x2444x@1)  F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)   F (133211@1)B (x2444x@1)C (x32010@1)FAnd (133211@1)the mornin' will be breakin'!

        Dm (xx0231@1)      B (x2444x@1)         FAnd (133211@1)the seagulls, they'll be smilin'
                               B (x2444x@1)     FAnd (133211@1)the rocks on the sand will proudly stand

      C (x32010@1)          B (x2444x@1)              FWill (133211@1)not be understood as they're spoken'

F (133211@1)                        B (x2444x@1)       FOh (133211@1)a song will lift as the mainsail shifts
        Dm (xx0231@1)        B (x2444x@1)      FAnd (133211@1)the boat drifts onto the shoreline
                               B (x2444x@1)         F (133211@1)
