[G]
Sitting in the morning [B] sun, [C] I'll be sitting till the evening [A] comes
[G] Watching the ships [B] roll in, [C] then I'll watch them roll away [A] again
[G] Sitting on the dock of [E] the bay, watching [G] the tide roll [E] away
[G] Sitting on the dock of [A] the bay, wasting [G] time
[E] I
[G] left my home [B] in Georgia,
[C] headed for the Frisco [A] Bay
Cause [G] I had nothing [B] to live for, looks [C] like nothing gonna come [A] my way
[G] Sitting on the dock [E] of the bay, watching [G] the tide [E] roll away
[G] Sitting on the dock [A] of the bay, wasting [G] time
[E] Looks
[G] [D] like [C] nothing's gonna change, [G] [D] everything [C] still remains the same
[G] I [D] can't do what [C] ten people tell me to do,
[F] so I guess [D] I'll remain the same
[G] Sitting here, resting [B] my bones, [C] and this loneliness won't leave me [A] alone
Two [G] thousand miles [B] I'll run, just [C] to make this dock [A] my home
[G] Sitting on the dock of [E] the bay, watching [G] the tide roll [E] away
[G] Sitting on the dock [A] of the bay, wasting [G] time
