Start Jamming...
[G]
Sitting in the [B] morning sun [C] I'll be sitting when the evening [A] comes
[G] Watching the [B] ships roll in [C] Then I'll watch them roll away [A] again
Yeah, [G] I'm sitting on the [E] dock of the bay Watching [G] the tide [E] roll away
Ooh, I'm [G] just sitting on the dock of [A] the bay Wasting [G] time
[E] I [G] left my [B] home in Georgia
[C] Headed for the [A] Frisco Bay
Cause [G] I've had nothing [B] to do for And it [C] looks like nothing's gonna [Bb] come [A] my way
So I'm [G] just gonna sit on the dock [Bm] of the bay [E] Watching [G] the tide roll [Bm] away
[E] Ooh, [G] I'm sitting on the dock [A] of the bay [G] Wasting time
[E] Looks
[G] [D] like [C] nothing's gonna [G] change [D] Everything [C] still remains the [G] same
I [D] 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 [C] And this loneliness [Bb] won't leave [A] me alone
[G] This two thousand [B] miles I roamed [C] Just to make this dock [A] my home
Now [G] I'm just gonna sit at the dock [E] of the bay Watching [G] the tide roll [E] away
Ooh, [G] I'm sitting on the dock [A] of the bay [G] Wasting time
