[G]
Sitting in the [B] morning sun [C] I'll be sitting when the [A] evening comes
[G] Watching the ships [B] roll in [C] Then I'll watch them roll away [A] again
Yeah [G] I'm sitting on the dock of [E] a bay
Watching [G] the tide roll [E] away
[G] Sitting on the dock of [A] a bay
Wasting [G] time [E] I [G] left my [Bb] home [B] in Georgia
[C] Headed for the [Bb] Frisco [A] Bay Cause [G] I've had nothing [B] to feel for
[C] Look like nothing's gonna [Bb] come [A] my way So I'm [G] just gonna sit on the dock [E] of a bay
Watching [G] the tide roll [Bm] [E] away
[G] Sitting on the [E] dock of [A] a bay Wasting [G] time
[E]
[G] Look [D] like [C] nothing's gonna change [G] [D] Everything [C] still remains the [G] same
I [D] can't do [C] what ten people tell [G] me to do [F] So I guess [D] I'll remain the same
[G] Sitting here resting [B] my bones And [C] this loneliness won't [A] leave me alone
[G] Two thousand miles [B] I roam Just [C] to make this [Am] dock [A] my home
Now I'm [G] just gonna sit at the dock of [E] a bay Watching [G] the tide roll [E] away
[G] Sitting on the dock of [A] a bay [G] Wasting time
