[B] [C]
[A] [D]
Sitting in the [B] morning sun, [C] I'll be sitting when the [A] evening comes.
[D] Watching the ships [B] roll in, [C] and I'll watch them roll away [A] again.
So [G] I'm gonna sit on the dock [E] of the bay, and watch [G] the tide [E] roll away.
Mmm, [G] I'm gonna sit on the dock [A] of the bay, and [G] waste my time.
[E] I [G] left my home [B] in Georgia,
[C] headed for the [A] Frisco Bay.
[Gm] I have [B] nothing to live for, [G] and looks like nothing's gonna [A] come my way.
So [G] I'm gonna sit on the [E] dock of the bay, and watch [G] the tide [E] roll away.
[G] Yeah, I'm gonna sit on the [Em] dock of the bay, and waste [G] my time.
[E]
[G] [D] Looks [G] like nothing's gonna change, [D] everything [G] still remains the same.
I [D] can do what [C] ten people tell me to [D] do, so I guess I'll [A] remain the same.
[E]
[D] [B]
[C] [A]
[G] Sitting here resting [B] my bones, and [C] this loneliness won't leave [A] me alone.
[G] It's two [A] thousand miles [B] I've roamed, [C] just to make this dock [A] my home.
So [G]
I'm gonna sit on the dock [E] of the bay, and [G] watch the tide [E] roll away.
[G] I'm gonna sit on the dock [A] of the bay, and [G] waste my time.
