In the motion of the ocean, hear the cold wind blowing

Esus4

Verse:
Em
Down the ocean a ship comes riding through the waves
Em
Filled with hundreds of men they take as slaves
G                                 D
Just long for their true Homeland Africa
G                               B
And to be saved they want to be free
Am
Men, women and baby slaves
                      B
Coming to the land of liberty, liberty

Chorus:
       Em         D          G          A       Em

       Em         D          G          A       Em
Ship ahoy, ship ahoy, ship ahoy, ship aho-o-o-o-oy (ship ahoy)

Verse:
Em
They are tired of waiting for a brand new day
Em
Some of them sing and chant, some of them pray
G                         D
And some men got a little tired too
G                           B          Am  B
No one knows if the journey pay

Chorus:
       Em         D          G          A       Em
Ship ahoy, ship ahoy, ship ahoy, ship aho-o-o-o-oy (ship ahoy)
       Em         D          G          A       Em
Ship ahoy, ship ahoy, ship ahoy, ship aho-o-o-o-oy (ship ahoy)

Verse:
Em
Down the ocean a ship comes riding through the waves
Em
Filled with hundreds of men they take as slaves
G                                 D
Just long for their true Homeland Africa

And to be saved they want to be free
Am
Men, women and baby slaves
                      B
Coming to the land of liberty, liberty
