TOP GUN - (Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay chords
Start Jamming...
[G]
Sitting in the [B] morning sun I'll [C] be sitting when the [A] evening comes
[G]
Watching the ships [B] roll in [C] And then I'll watch them roll [A] away again
Yeah, [G] I'm sitting on the dock [E] of the bay Watching [G] the tide roll [E] away
Ooh, [G] I'm just sitting on the dock [A] of the bay [G] Wasting 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 do for And [C] it looks like nothing's gonna [Bb] come [A] my way
So [G] I'm just gonna sit on the dock [Bm] of the [E] bay Watching the [G] tide roll [Bm] [E] away
Ooh, [G] I'm just sitting on the dock [A] of the bay [G] Wasting time
[E] Looks [G]
[D] [C] like nothing's gonna [Am] 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] Just sitting here resting [B] my bones [C] And this loneliness [Bb] won't leave [A] me alone
[G] This two thousand miles [B] I roamed [C] Just to make this [A] dock my home
Now I'm [G] just gonna sit at the dock of [B] the [E] bay Watching [G] the tide roll [E] away
Ooh, [G] I'm just sitting on the dock of [A] the bay [G] Wasting time
[E] [G] [E] [G]
[E] [G]
