***WHEN THE SHIP COMES IN - written by Bob DylanWhen The Ship Comes In - as perfomed by The PoguesIntro G C G D G C D GG D C GOh the time will come up when the winds will stopEm C GAnd the breeze will cease to be a-breathinG D C GLike the stillness in the wind before the hurricane begins,D GThe hour that the ship comes inD C GAnd the sea will split and the ships will hitD C GAnd the sands on the shoreline will be shakingD C GAnd the tide will sound and the waves will poundC D GAnd the morning will be a-breakingOh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the pathAnd the seagulls will be a-smilin'And the rocks on the sand will proudly standThe hour that the ship comes inAnd the words that are used for to get the ship confusedWill not be understood as they're spokenOh the chains of the sea will have busted in the nightAnd be buried on the bottom of the oceanA song will lift as the main sail shiftsAnd the boat drifts unto the shorelineAnd the sun will respect every face on the deckThe hour that the ship comes inAnd the sands will roll out a carpet of goldFor your wearied toes to be a-touchin'And the ship's wise men will remind you once againThat the whole wide world is watchin'Oh the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyesAnd they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'But they'll pinch themselves and squealAnd they'll know that it's for real,The hour that the ship comes inAnd they'll raise their handsSayin' we'll meet all you demandsBut we'll shout from the bowYour days are numberedAnd like Pharoah's tribe they'll be drownded in the tideAnd like Goliath they'll be conquered***Version 2*** by AlexIntro G C G Em C D G D G C D GG Bm C GOh the time will come up when the winds will stopG C GAnd the breeze will cease to be a-breathinG Bm C GLike the stillness in the wind before the hurricane begins,G D7 GThe hour that the ship comes inD GAnd the sea will split and the ships will hitD GAnd the sands on the shoreline will be shakingD GAnd the tide will sound and the waves will poundG C D GAnd the morning will be a-breakingOh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the pathAnd the seagulls will be a-smilin'And the rocks on the sand will proudly standThe hour that the ship comes inAnd the words that are used for to get the ship confusedWill not be understood as they're spokenOh the chains of the sea will have busted in the nightAnd be buried on the bottom of the oceanA song will lift as the main sail shiftsAnd the boat drifts unto the shorelineAnd the sun will respect every face on the deckThe hour that the ship comes inAnd the sands will roll out a carpet of goldFor your wearied toes to be a-touchin'And the ship's wise men will remind you once againThat the whole wide world is watchin'Oh the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyesAnd they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'But they'll pinch themselves and squealAnd they'll know that it's for real,The hour that the ship comes inAnd they'll raise their handsSayin' we'll meet all you demandsBut we'll shout from the bowYour days are numberedAnd like Pharoah's tribe they'll be drownded in the tideAnd like Goliath they'll be conquered
