WHEN THE SHIP COMES IN sung by Peter, Paul and Mary from Bob Dylan; Special Rider Music - SESAC Intro: F B F Dm B C F F B F Oh the time will come up when the wind will stop Dm B F And the breeze will cease to be breathin' B F Like the stillness in the wind 'fore the hurricane begins B C F The hour that the ship comes in. C B F Oh the seas will split and the ship will hit C B F And the sand on the shoreline will be shakin' C B F And the tide will sound and the waves will pound B F C F B C F And the mornin' will be breakin'! F B F Oh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path Dm B F And the seagulls, they'll be smilin' B F And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand B C F The hour that the ship comes in. C B F And the words that are used for to get the ship confused C B F Will not be understood as they're spoken' C B F For the chains of the sea will have busted in the night B F C F B C F And be buried on the bottom of the ocean. F B F Oh a song will lift as the mainsail shifts Dm B F And the boat drifts onto the shoreline B F And the sun will respect every face on the deck B C F The hour that the ship comes in. C B F And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold C B F For your weary toes to be a touchin' C B F And the ship's wise men will remind you once again B F C F B C F That the whole wide world is watchin'! F B F Of the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes Dm B F And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin' B F But they'll pinch themselves and squeal and they'll know that it's for real B C F The hour that the ship comes in. C B F And they'll raise their hands sayin' "We'll meet all your demands" C B F But we'll shout from the bow "Your days are numbered!" C B F And like Pharaoh's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide B F C F B C F And like Goliath they'll be conquered!
