When The Ship Comes In
By Bob Dylan
Capo 3
C Em F C
Oh, the time will come up when the wind will stop,
Am F C
And the breeze will cease to be breathin'.
C Em F C
Like a stillness in the wind before the hurricane begins.
C F G C
The hour that the ship comes in.
Em F C
And the seas will split and the ship will hit,
Em F C
And the sands on the shoreline will be shaking,
C Em F C
And the tide will sound and the waves will pound,
C F G C F C
And the morning will be breaking.
C Em F C
Oh, the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path,
Am F C
And the sea gulls, they'll be smiling.
C Em F C
And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand,
C F G C
The hour that the ship comes in.
Em F C
And the words that are used for to get the ship confused,
Em F C
Will not be understood as they're spoken.
C Em F C
For the chains of the sea will have busted in the night,
C F G C F C
And be buried in the bottom of the ocean.
C Em F C
A song will lift as the main sail shifts,
Am F C
And the boat drifts on to the shoreline.
C Em F C
And the sun will respect every face on the deck,
C F G C
The hour that the ship comes in.
Em F C
Then the sands will roll out a carpet of gold,
Em F C
For your weary toes to be a-touchin'.
C Em F C
And the ship's wise men will remind you once again,
C F G C F C
That the whole wide world is watchin'.
C Em F C
Oh, the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes,
Am F C
And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'.
C Em F C
But they'll pinch themselves and squeal and they'll know that it's for real,
C F G C
The hour that the ship comes in.
Em F C
Then they'll raise their hands sayin', "We'll meet all your demands."
Em F C
But we'll shout from the bow, "Your days are numbered."
C Em F C
And like Pharaoh's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide,
C F G C F C
And like Goliath, they'll be conquered.
