When My Ship Comes In 
By Clint Black 
 
...Picked this one off of No.1 Country Hit Mix 
I'm not sure what CD of Clint's it is on. 
 
 
Capo on 2nd fret. 
 
E   Esus   E   Esus   E    Esus 
 
 
E              Esus 
No Sun on the Rockies 
E            D         A  
Not even the light of day 
E                      D            A    
I feel that old cabin fever commin' on 
E                 Esus 
But I Know where I'll be 
E                      D        A       
When lady luck finally blows my way 
E                          D               A 
She'll put the wind in my sails & I'll be gone 
 
 
 
       A                           D  
Cho....It won't be long before my ship comes in 
              A                     G   D  A 
       Gonna sail right out of Colorado 
                          D          
       Catch a ride on a warm trade wind 
             E               A 
       Where no one knows 
                                       D 
       She'll find me waitin' when my ship comes in 
             A                              G        D    A 
       Gonna board and go whichever way the wind blows... 
                              D 
       I'll be off to find myself once again  
                 E           Esus    
       And where no one knows 
                 E           Esus 
       When my ship comes in 
 
 
 
Inst....   A   D   A   G   D   A   D   E   Esus   E   Esus   E 
 
E                Esus   E      D          A    E 
Maybe I'm only dreamin' But it sure seams real 
                          D                  A   E   
Somehow the wind doesn't chill quite to the bone 
                         Esus  E 
Or could it just be the fever 
                    D     A   E   
I'm runnin' on an uneven keel 
                        D               A 
I'm losin sight of why I'm up here alone.... 
 
       A                           D  
Cho....It won't be long before my ship comes in 
              A                     G   D  A 
       Gonna sail right out of Colorado 
                          D          
       Catch a ride on a warm trade wind 
             E               A 
       Where no one knows 
                                       D 
       She'll find me waitin' when my ship comes in 
             A                              G        D    A 
       Gonna board and go whichever way the wind blows... 
                              D 
       I'll be off to find myself once again  
                 E           Esus    
       And where no one knows 
                 E           Esus 
       When my ship comes in 
                 E           Esus   
       where no one knows 
                 E           Esus 
       When my ship comes in 
 
A                           D            G    D   
It won't be long before my ship comes in 
               G 
Where no one knows 
                                D            G     
She'll find me waitin' when my ship comes in 
               G  
Where no one knows 
 
 
Repeat & fade
