When Your Ship Comes In Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]When your ship comes in, my fri[F]end
You know of [C]the smiling[F][C]
[F]I see you[C]r ship is sailing, gently,
[F]across the sea[G][C][G]
[Abdim]Bring the family[Am], bring the kids
Bring the whole [F]fact [D]sheets
And from [C]a t[G]ummult in the morni[C]ng
[G]The[F] shore is [G]all you[C]
want to see
[Csus4][C]

[Verse 2]
[F]Sna[C]p up all your tickets[F]
You know the ship is si[C]lent[F][C][F]
Si[C]lent as a paint[F]ing of this [G]ship
[Abdim]The sea will s[E]plit, t[Am]he ship will hit
The bottom [C]of [F]the [D]ocean
And from [C]a tummult in
the morning
[F]The shore is all you want to
see
[C][Bb][C]

[Verse 3]
[Bb]
[C]We see sun in their eyes, their vision [F]settles
To see if there's [C]no dreaming[F][C]
When you know as well as me
[F]The anchor bridle isn't [G]there
All your [F]hidden man[Am]ners
were in my hands
I'm thinking over from the
[F]blue [D]print (Oh, oh)
And when you [C]don't
want no one [Am]knowing
You can [F]sit around [D]and sell it back [C]to him

[Verse 4]
[C]
[F]When [C]your ship comes in,
my [F]friend
You know of [C]the smiling[F][C]
I see [F]you [C]striptease, you know
about the hold- [F]ups
From the west to the [G]east
He's a [F]cham[Am]pion, I'll raise a glass
One you lose,
[G]another [F]che[D]sthead
And from [C]a tummult in the morning
The [F]shore is all you [C]care to see

[Interlude 1]
[F][C][Bb][C][Bb][C]
[Bb][F][C][Bb][F][C][Bb][C][Bb]
[F][C][Bb][F][C][Bb][F][C][Bb][C][Bb][Am]
[C][Bb][C][Bb][F][Am][D][C]
[F][C][Bb][C]
[Bb]I see

[Verse 5]
[C]your ship's coming,
[F]go
The situation's [C]over[F][C][F]
Leave [C]all you see, six [F]sailors to [G]the go
And then the [F]ship [Am]might head on wind
I could be with you forever
[F](Oh[D], oh)
And from [C]a tummult in the morning
The [F]shore is [G]all you want to see

[Outro 1]
[C][Bb][C]
