[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G B7
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
C A
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
G B7
Watching the ships roll in
C A
Then I'll watch 'em roll away again, yeah
[Chorus]
G E
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Watching the tide roll away
G A
Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Wastin' time
[Verse]
G B7
I left my home in Georgia
C A
Headed for the 'Frisco Bay
G B7
I have nothing to live for
C A
Look like nothin's gonna come my way
[Chorus]
G E
So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
G E
Watching the tide roll away
G A
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Wastin' time
[Bridge]
G D C G
Look like, nothing's gonna change
G D C G
Everything still remains the same
G D C G
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
F D
So I guess I'll remain the same, yes
[Verse]
G B7
Sittin' here resting my bones
C A
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
G B7
It's two thousand miles I roam
C A
Just to make this dock my home
[Chorus]
G E
Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
G E
Watching the tide roll away
G A
Ooo, I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Wastin' time
[Outro]
G E
