Otis Redding – (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay (Official Video) chords
Start Jamming...
Sitting in the [B] morning sun, I'll [C] be sitting when the [A] evening comes,
[G] Watching the ships [B] roll in, Then [C] I'll watch them roll [A] away again, yeah.
[G] Sitting on the dock [B] of the bay, Watching [G] the tide go [E] away, yeah.
[G] Sitting on the dock [A] of the bay, [G] Watching the tide [E] go away, yeah.
[G] I left my home [B] in Georgia,
[C] Headed for the crystal [A] bay,
[G] I've had nothing [B] before, [C] Looked like nothing's gonna come [A] my way,
So [G] I'm just gonna sit on the dock [B] of the bay, Watching [G] the tide go [B] away, yeah.
[G] Sitting on the dock [A] of the bay, [G] Watching the tide go [E] away,
[G] yeah.
Looking [C] like nothing's gonna change, [G] [C] Everything's still the same,
[G] I can't do [C] what ten people [G] tell me to do, [F] So I guess [D] I'll remain the same,
[G] Sitting here resting [B] my bones, In [C] this lonely, messy [A] room,
[G] Two thousand miles [B] I roam, [C] Just to make this a proper [A] home,
Now I'm [G] just gonna sit at the dock [B] of the bay, Watching [G] the tide go [E] away, yeah.
[G] Sitting on the dock of [A] the bay, Watching [G] the tide go [E] away, yeah.
