_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [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
_ _ [G] Sitting on the dock [B] of the bay Watching [G] a tide roll [Bm] away
[E] Ooh, [G] just sitting on the dock of [A] the bay _ [G] Wasting time _
_ [E] _ _ _ [G] I left my home [B] in Georgia _ _ [C] Headed for the Frisco [A] Bay
_ _ _ [G] I've had nothing [B] _ before And [C] it looks like nothing's gonna come [A] my way
So I'm [G] just gonna sit on the dock [B] of the bay Watching [G] the tide roll [B] away
_ [G] I'm sitting on the dock [A] of the bay _ [G] Wasting time _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
Looks [C] like nothing's gonna change [G] _ _
[D] Everything [C] still remains the [G] same
I can't do [C] what ten people tell me to [Gm] do [F] So I guess [D] I'll remain the same
_ [G] Sitting here resting [B] my bones In [C] this loneliness won't leave [A] me alone
This [G] two thousand miles [B] I roam _ [C] Just to make this dock [A] my home
Now I'm [G] just gonna sit at the dock of [B] the bay Watching [G] the tide roll [B] away
Ooh, [G] just sitting on the dock of [A] the bay _ [G] Wasting time _ _

_ _ [A] This is my love of prayer I'm _ _ here to reach out to you my love
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E]
This is my love of prayer _ And I hope you can understand my love _ _ _
_ My life is such a weary thing But in my heels, [D] oh, this prayer is bringing
a ring _ _ _ _ [E] _ You keep me wanting, waiting, and wishing
When I know [A] deep down I'm not to blame What [D] _ _ _
[A] _ _ you're gonna do tonight _
When you need some loving arms to hold you tight _ _ _ _ _ [E] Tell me what you're gonna do tonight
When you need my handy [A] voice to tell the night _ _ _ [F#m]
Honey, [A] but you can't let that be no problem
You got to come on [D] home and help me solve them
Oh, _ _ _ dear, [E] I won't be missing you And honey, my love of prayer will be all over _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ [D] What _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
[A] can the matter be?
_ _ It can't get too [D] serious, we can't talk it over _
_ _ _ _ [E] Living in this misery, darling, you [A] can't make my life all over
_ _ _ _ Honey, but you don't let that be no problem Just come on home [D] and help me solve them _ _
_ _ _ [E] Dear, I won't be missing you I won't keep missing you
And my [A] love of prayer will be all over _ _ _ It's got to be all over, _ [D] honey, all over
_ You don't [A] keep my mind going round So [D] many times
_ This is [A] my love of prayer, so [E] come on, come on home _
This is my love of [D] prayer, I'm singing it out to you _
