Oh, the time will come up when the winds will stop
EmCG
And the breeze will cease to be a-breathing
CG
Like the stillness in the wind 'fore the hurricane begins
EmCG
The hour when the ship comes in
BmCG
Oh, the seas will split and the ship will hit
BmCG
And the shoreline sands will be shaking
BmCG
Then the tide will sound and the wind will pound
CDG
And the morning will be breaking
N.C. G C G
Oh, the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path
EmCG
And the seagulls they'll be smiling
CG
And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand
EmCG
The hour that the ship comes in
BmCG
And the words that are used for to get the ship confused
BmCG
Will not be understood as they are spoken
BmCG
For the chains of the sea will have busted in the night
CDG
And be buried at the bottom of the o___cean

Oh, the seas will split and the ship will hit
BmCG
And the shoreline sands will be shaking
BmCG
Then the tide will sound and the wind will pound
CDG
And the morning will be breaking
N.C. G C G
A song will lift as the mainsail shifts
EmCG
And the boat drifts onto the shoreline
CG
And the sun will respect every face on the deck
EmCG
The hour when the ship comes in
BmCG
Then the sands will roll out a carpet of gold
BmCG
For your weary toes to be a-touching
BmCG
And the ship's wise men will remind you once again
CDG
That the whole wide world is watching
