Bob Dylan - When The Ship Comes In


 G             	      D           C           G  Oh the time will come up when the winds will stop
        Em          C             GAnd the breeze will cease to be a-breathin
         G                D              C           G           Like the stillness in the wind before the hurricane begins,
       G           D          G The hour that the ship comes in
        D        C            G  And the sea will split and the ships will hit
         D            C                G And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking
       D         		C          G                   And the tide will sound and the waves will pound
         G      C    C     D     G And the morning will be a-breaking




G             	      D           C           G  Oh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path
        Em          C             GAnd the seagulls will be a-smilin'
         G                D              C           G           And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand
       G           D          GThe hour that the ship comes in 
        D        C            G  And the words that are used for to get the ship confused
         D            C                GWill not be understood as they're spoken
       D         		C          G                   Oh the chains of the sea will have busted in the night
         G      C    C     D     GAnd be buried on the bottom of the ocean



G             	      D           C           G  A song will lift as the main sail shifts
        Em          C             GAnd the boat drifts unto the shoreline
         G                D              C           G           And the sun will respect every face on the deck
       G           D          GThe hour that the ship comes in
        D        C            G  And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold
         D            C                GFor your wearied toes to be a-touchin'
       D         		C          G                   And the ship's wise men will remind you once again
         G      C    C     D     GThat the whole wide world is watchin'



G             	      D           C           G  Oh the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes 
        Em          C             GAnd they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'
         G                D              C           G           But they'll pinch themselves and squeal 
       G           D          GAnd they'll know that it's for real, 
        D        C            G  The hour that the ship comes in
         D            C                GAnd they'll raise their hands ,Sayin' we'll meet all you demands
       D         		C          G                   But we'll shout from the bow ,Your days are numbered
       D         		C          G                   And like Pharoah's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide 
         G      C    C     D     GAnd like Goliath they'll be conquered
